The Long Right Arrow (⟶) is a typographical and mathematical symbol used to indicate direction, sequence, or transformation. In mathematics and logic, it frequently represents a function mapping or an implication between statements, standing out from standard arrows due to its extended length. Typographically, it provides a visually balanced alternative when an arrow needs to span wider gaps in text, diagrams, or chemical equations.
