Is there a mathematical operator to truncate negative values to zero?

Question

Is there a mathematical symbol that truncates a value x to 0 if it is negative, and leaves it untouched otherwise? Something which is logically equivalent to $\max(x, 0)$?

Answer 1

I have seen the notation $z^+$ to denote $\max\{z,0\}$ in many papers and books. Analogously, $z^-$ to denote $-\min\{z,0\}$. Wikipedia uses that notation too.

EDIT (thanks to @rzippo) : Note that $z^-$ denotes the so-called negative part, which is non-negative. If we want a function that simply truncates positive values to zero, then we would need the function $f(z)=\min\{z,0\}$ (without the minus sign), for which I do not know any particular notation.
