The multiplication sign (×), also known as the times sign or the dimension sign, is a mathematical symbol used to denote the operation of multiplication, which results in a product.[1] While similar to a lowercase X (x), the form is properly a four-fold rotationally symmetric saltire.[2]
The symbol is also used in botany, in botanical hybrid names.
