Unicode Version 17.0
╯
U+256F "╯" Box Drawings Light Arc Up and Left is a visual element from the Box Drawing block, designed to represent a curved corner segment that connects a horizontal line on its right side to a vertical line descending from its top. This particular glyph is commonly used in text-based diagrams and simple computer interfaces to create rounded or arched junctions, often appearing as part of a larger set of light line box-drawing characters. Its distinctive curve provides a softer alternative to sharp right-angle corners, making it useful for stylistic ASCII art or for visually indicating a path that bends upward and to the left within a grid layout.
