Try charmap.exe on your own Windows computer. That will show you the symbols and give you the names, at least. When you want more information you can look them up on Wikipedia.

@RedDeerGuy1 adding to @CWOTUS‘s response, the mathematical symbols seem to start at U+2200 with the symbol ∀ meaning “for all.”
