U+296D "⥭" Rightwards Harpoon with Barb down Below Long Dash Unicode Character

U+296D "⥭" Rightwards Harpoon with Barb down Below Long Dash is a mathematical symbol used primarily in notation for mappings, functions, or arrows in technical and academic contexts such as algebra, logic, or computer science. It combines a rightward harpoon (a type of arrow with a barb at the tip) pointing to the right, with a downward-facing barb attached to its shaft, and a long dash extending from the base of the harpoon. This specific configuration can denote a directed relationship or transformation that is less common than standard arrows, often indicating a specialized operation or a non-injective mapping. The character belongs to the Supplemental Arrows-B block in Unicode, which includes various arrow variants for precise diagrammatic and formal notation.
