The LaTeX command for mathcal C (๐) is \mathcal{C}.
\mathcal{C}Writing a paper? The table generator and the BibTeX cleaner are one click away, no account.
Write \mathcal{C} inside math mode, that is between $โฆ$ for inline math or in a \[ โฆ \] or equation block for display math. It is part of core LaTeX math, so no extra package is required.
\mathcal{C} is a math-mode symbol: in running text, wrap it in $...$. With unicode-math under XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX, typing ๐ in a formula gives the same symbol.

Use \mathcal{C} in math mode; it needs no extra package. For example, $\mathcal{C}$.
None: \mathcal{C} is built into LaTeX, so no extra package is required.
