Unicode numberU+2083
CategorySubscript and superscriptSubscript numbers
DescriptionThe Unicode character ₃, or U+2083, is known as the "Subscript Three". It is part of the "Superscripts and Subscripts" block and falls under the "Number, Decimal Digit" category in the Unicode standard. This character is typically used in mathematical and scientific texts to represent a number or variable that is a subscript. For instance, in the formula for the volume of a cube (s³), where 's' is the length of a side, '³' is superscript. But if we are dealing with a sequence or a series like a3, '3' would be a subscript. These notations help in conveying complex mathematical and scientific ideas in a concise manner.
