In Python, to print the approximately equal symbol, you can use the unicode for approximately equal ‘\u2245’.

print('\u2245')

#Output:
≅

Other unicodes which might be useful depending on what you are trying to accomplish are shown below which are similar to approximately equal.

print('\u2246')
print('\u2247')
print('\u2248')
print('\u2249')

#Output:
≆
≇
≈
≉

When outputting text to the console or to a file, the ability to write different symbols easily is valuable.

One such symbol which is commonly used is the approximately equal symbol.

Python has the ability to write many symbols and emojis since many symbols have a unicode associated with it.

To print the approximately equal symbol, you can use the unicode for approximately equal ‘\u2245’.

Below shows how you can print the approximately equal symbol in Python.

print('\u2245')

Unicode for Not Approximately Equal Symbol in Python

If you want to print the negation of approximately equal, you can use the symbol for ‘approximately but not actually equal to’ or ‘neither approximately nor actually equal to’ symbols

To print the approximately but not actually equal to symbol, you can use the unicode for approximately but not actually equal to ‘\u2246’.

Below shows how you can print the approximately but not actually equal to symbol in Python.

print('\u2246')

#Output:
≆

To print the neither approximately nor actually equal to symbol, you can use the unicode for neither approximately nor actually equal to ‘\u2247’.

Below shows how you can print the approximately but not actually equal to symbol in Python.

print('\u2247')

#Output:
≇

Printing the Almost Equal Symbol in Python

Another similar symbol which is commonly used in math is the almost equal symbol. The “>unicode for almost equal is ‘\u2248’.

For not almost equal, the “>unicode for not almost equal is ‘\u2249’.

Below shows how to print the almost equal and not almost equal symbols in Python.
