What does '~is' mean?

Here

kotlinx.coroutines/kotlinx-coroutines-core/common/src/flow/Channels.kt

Line 74 in a70022d

* 2) Flow consumer completes normally when the original channel completes (~is closed) normally.

'~is' is used. Does this mean 'not is' or 'approx. is'/'more or less is'?

Please use natural language in the docs.

This is a mathematic notation for equivalence . Informally, it's just "roughly it's the same as".

I will rephrase this doc, thanks for pointing it out

Thanks. By the way, '~' also can mean logical negation and that's how I interpreted it.
