Omega (Ω ω) is the 24th and last letter of the Greek alphabet. In the Greek numeric system it had a value of 800. The word literally means "big O" (omega, mega meaning 'big'), as opposed to Omicron, which means "little O" (omicron, micron meaning 'little').[1]. Omega Ω phonetically represents a long "O" in the English language, such as the pronunciation in the word "close". Omega is often used to denote the last, the end, or the ultimate limit of a set, in contrast to Alpha, the first letter of the Greek Alphabet. Jesus declares himself to be the "Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last." (Revelation 22:13, KJV, and see also 1:8).

Omega was also adopted into the early Cyrillic alphabet. See omega (Cyrillic) (Ѡ, ѡ).

The symbol Ω (upper-case letter)

The upper-case letter Ω is used as a symbol:

• In computer science, in notation related to Big O notation to describe the asymptotic behavior of functions. See also Chaitin's constant
• Codex Athous Dionysii, an 8th/9th century uncial Greek manuscript of the Gospels on Mount Athos
