Which symbol in Mathematics do you think is the most aesthetically pleasing?

I'm kinda sitting on the fence between Sigma and Zeta:

Capital delta

Why?

1. Its triangular and 3 is my favourite number
2. Symbolises "change", a profound concept

Nothing comes close to,

Okay, I have decided the Sigma is my favourite.

1. It is symmetrical.

2. It symbolises 'sum', and I really like sums.

3. It's sharp and definite, whereas the Zeta is all flowy and smooth and curvy and wish-wash. Not straight to the point.

Capital Delta has all of those except 2. and even then "change" is better than "sum"

Great minds think alike. I absolutely love the capital sigma, it just feels so bau5 writing it down!

But the delta is just so simple...

(like you )

ℵdats cool, looks like its from da hood

inb4 "how do you write your capital sigmas"

 

[Carrotsticks]

Oh no, don't you start.....

And mirakon, I will fight to the death to argue that Sigma > Delta.

 

[mirakon]

hell no, capital delta ftw

Seriously I saw someone today, or yesterday, write it like a backwards "3"
