The Right Two Headed Arrow (↠) is a standard Unicode directional symbol characterized by two stacked arrowheads pointing to the right. In mathematics, it is widely used to denote a surjective function (or epimorphism), indicating that a function maps completely onto its target set. Beyond advanced math, it often appears in technical documentation and user interfaces to represent a fast-forward action, a forced progression, or a multi-step process.
