I need some keyboard help

[vangndy]

HI, i am looking for help with reproducing certain characters that are used in my symbolic logic class, spefically "backwards E," "upside down A" "arrow right," etc.... The link is straight to my assignment, it is Word format, and includes several of the characters I am attempting to reproduce for my assignment, but there are also several more I will need to locate for use later during the semester. Short of copy/paste I would appreciate the knowledge of how to reproduce these and other characters on my own. If anyone is aware of a site where I can see these unusual characters, and how to insert them into a document I would really appreciate it.

My assignment

insert>symbol

Ahhh, I should have mentioned, I am seeking to insert the symbols in a message composed using Yahoo mail. There is no insert menu available, copy/paste distorts the symbols to other charachters. Isa there anyway to do insert the symbol directly into my email?

Use the ASCII key code equivalents. ALT and the right number (using the number pad, not the top row of the keyboard)
