What does := mean?where we are saying that the two sides are equal, but we are not defining "1" to be the expression " sin2(θ) +cos2(θ) sin 2 (θ) + cos 2 (θ) " Basically, some people think that there should be notational difference between saying "I define blah to be equal to blankety " and saying " blah is equal to blankety " So they use := for the first and = for the latter Usually

- Much less than, what does that mean? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
What exactly does ≪ ≪ mean? I am familiar that this symbol means much less than but what exactly does "much less than" mean? (Or the corollary, ≫ ≫) On Wikipedia, the example they use is that 1 ≪ 9999999999 1 ≪ 9999999999 But my thought on that is that 10101011 ≪ 10101011 + 9999999999 10 10 10 11 ≪ 10 10 10 11 + 9999999999, based on the same logic But I am confused because

- notation - what does ≼ or ≺ mean? - Mathematics Stack Exchange
The curly versions of the less than and greater than signs are commonly used to denote some other ordering than the one that we are usually talking about For instance there is a partial ordering on the symmetric matrices, where A ≼ B if and only if B − A is a nonnegative definite matrix We write ≼ instead of ≤ to avoid confusion with the ordering that we use more commonly This would
