arrow symbol
Points the way
An arrow symbol (→, ←, ↑, ↓, and variations) indicates direction, movement, or progression.
In diagrams and signage, arrows point toward destinations or indicate flow.
In writing, they show logical progression or causation: heat → expansion.
In computing and mathematics, arrows connect inputs to outputs or denote functions.
Double-headed arrows (↔) suggest bidirectional relationships or equivalence.
