Calorie
- $\mathrm {cal}$
The symbol for the calorie is $\mathrm {cal}$.
However, this is of limited usefulness unless which specific type of calorie is under discussion, for example:
- the thermodynamic calorie, with symbol $\mathrm {cal_c}$
- the international calorie, with symbol $\mathrm {cal_s}$.
The $\LaTeX$ code for \(\mathrm {cal}\) is \mathrm {cal}
