Correct term in english to call the symbols: "=" / "≥" / "≤"

141 Views Asked by At

I'm not speak English very well, and I have a question about how I can call the symbols = / / .

To describe them with a word in Portuguese, we use sinal (signal).

Which is the correct term in English? I want a single word to describe all three symbols, not three separate words.

EDIT

I want knows the better term to use in my function name getConstraintSign.

export const getConstraintSign = function(constraint) {
    return constraint.greater ? '≥' : constraint.less ? '≤' : '=';
}

In the program context you provide,

getConstraintSign

is fine.

getConstraintSymbol

would work too, and is a little more precise, since it's really a glyph (symbol) you're returning.
