About the leftwards arrow

The first version of ASCII, published in 1963, had a left arrow where the underscore _ sits today. The two codes were later reassigned, and the arrow disappeared from computer keyboards.

Its best-known job in programming is assignment: APL and Smalltalk both write x ← 5 to mean “x becomes 5”, and textbook pseudocode often does the same.
