Pronunciation: superscript plus
Formula examples
x⁺How to type Superscript Plus
- Windows
- Open Character Map and search by name or Unicode U+207A.
- macOS
- Open Character Viewer with Control–Command–Space and search by the symbol name.
- Microsoft Word
- In an equation, type ^{+} and press Space when Word supports the command.
- iPhone and iPad
- Copy and paste ⁺, or use a math/LaTeX app. The standard iOS keyboard may not expose every mathematical symbol.
- Android
- Copy and paste ⁺, or use a math keyboard or LaTeX editor. Keyboard layouts vary by device and app.
- Google Docs
- For plain text, paste ⁺ or use Insert → Special characters. For structured math, use the equation editor and verify ^{+}.
- Excel
- Paste ⁺ into a cell or use Insert → Symbol when available. Ordinary cells preserve the character but do not interpret LaTeX commands.
Common mistakes
- Unicode superscript or subscript glyphs such as ⁺ are plain text; use structured LaTeX or MathML scripts when nesting, accessibility, or reliable layout matters.
- For plain text, copy ⁺ as U+207A; for structured equations, use ^{+} in math mode. A look-alike glyph or image can break search, accessibility, or parsing when the intended character is Superscript Plus.
When to use ⁺
- Use ⁺ in plain text when a Unicode character is appropriate and the destination preserves U+207A.
- Use ^{+} in an equation editor when mathematical spacing or structure matters.
- Define the local meaning when Superscript Plus is used in super sub with a field-specific convention.
Look-alikes and related characters
