U+27FF "⟿" Long Rightwards Squiggle Arrow Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

U+27FF "⟿" Long Rightwards Squiggle Arrow is a typographic symbol in the Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-A block, designed to depict a horizontal arrow with a wavy or zigzag shaft that stretches longer than standard arrow variants. Often used in mathematics, logic, and computer science, it can represent a long-range transformation, a wavy mapping between sets, or a process that is not strictly linear or has a loose, flexible connection. Its distinctive wavy form helps distinguish it from straight arrows, conveying informality, approximation, or a non deterministic relationship in diagrams or formal notation. The character has a single code point and is typically rendered with a continuous, undulating line terminating in a standard arrowhead.
