About this symbol
In the braille alphabet, B is the cell with dots 1 2 raised. Dots are numbered 1, 2, 3 down the left column and 4, 5, 6 down the right.
B is one of the first ten letters, a to j, which use only the top four dots. After the number sign ⠼ the same cells stand for the digits, so B becomes 2.
