Hi,
I find it easier just to figure them out myself. They're fairly
logical actually and you can determine them in TextEdit or in any text
area within any app. The Option key is your modifier for this. In
the text area, simply hold down the Option key then press a key to
determine it's special character. Here's some common ones for you:
Option-Less than gives Less than or equal to
Option Greater than gives Greater than or equal to
Option v gives Square Root
Option Zero gives Degrees sign.
Option p gives pi (π)
Option equals gives Not equals
Option 4 gives the cent sign. 4 is used for the $ sign so your
logical determination is that the ¢ is also attached.
HTH.

I have tried everything which appears patently obvious to find a list
of math symbols: I have gone into Text Edit's edit menu, (every edit
menu on the Mac I could find, in fact) and tried to select "special
characters" but nothing happens. Interacting with any tool bars does
not help.
I located information at discuss.apple.com <http://discuss.apple.com>
which directed me to the systems preferences, to language and text,
to input source, to keyboard and character viewer, which I checked. I
am told to go to "show" in my menu bar, but such does not appear to
exist. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help.
