Meaning and context

The left-right arrow ↔ has a head at each end. It can show communication, conversion, or another two-way relationship between labeled endpoints.

How to use it

Label both endpoints and describe what moves or corresponds between them. In mathematics, distinguish a general relation from a specific logical equivalence convention.

Examples

Labeled use

Editor ↔ Reviewer

This diagram label indicates communication in both directions.

Second context

Metres ↔ Centimetres

The labels describe two conversion directions, not a conversion performed by the character.
