Source: Noto Sans Math Source: Browser Default

U+2422 "" Blank Symbol is a graphic representation of a blank or space used primarily in computing and data processing to make the presence of a space character visually explicit, as a regular space is typically invisible. It resembles a stylized underscore or a small empty rectangle, and it is part of the Control Pictures block, which includes symbols for other non-printing control characters. This character is often employed in debugging, text editing, or encoding contexts where distinguishing between a space and the absence of a character is important.
