Is there a Unicode character for plus over minus? (+/-)

Occasionally I've seen the symbol "plus or minus" written in fractional form, like this:

plus or minus

Is there a Unicode character for this?

Note: I already know about the standard "plus-minus sign" symbol, but it won't work in this context. I'm specifically looking for a version with the fraction bar.

Solution

  • This is the only one I have seen in unicode (plus over minus):

    ±

    HTML/XML Character reference:

    ±

    HTML Named Entity:

    ±

    This symbol is used to indicate the precision of an approximation.
