Sigma: History, Applications, Standards & Science

Sigma (/ˈsɪɡmə/ ⓘ SIG-mə; uppercase Σ, lowercase σ, lowercase in word-final position ς; Greek: σίγμα) is the eighteenth letter of the Greek alphabet. When it is used at the end of a letter-case word (one that does not use all caps), the final form (ς) is used.
