< Z_n> .... Symbols Like < And > But Less "Sharp" ....

In summary, the symbols < and > are used to compare values and indicate which one is smaller or larger. They are different from "sharp" symbols, which are used for other purposes such as musical notation or social media. The symbol < Z_n > represents the set of integers modulo n, and is read as "Z mod n" or "the integers modulo n". These symbols are important in mathematics for expressing relationships and logical statements.
