A new mathematical symbol

 We have a beautiful symbol for infinity, Lemniscate: Lemniskate. However, to my knowledge, we do not have a simple symbol to signal something finite. Thus, I want to propose a derivation of the Lemniscate symbol to indicate that: . A bit ironically when writing this blog post, I found the Wikipedia entry on infinity symbol and they they have an image similar to min, but there symboling infinity as used by Euler. So, I propose the opposite, as the curve now is finite in some sense.
