About the upper one eighth block symbol

In terminal interfaces and text-based user interfaces, this character fills the upper eighth of a character cell, creating a horizontal bar flush with the top of the line. It is part of a set of block-drawing symbols used to build simple graphics or visual indicators, such as progress bars or partial shading, where precise control over the filled portion of a cell is needed. As an other symbol in the Block Elements block, it does not represent a letter or number but serves as a graphic element for text-mode displays.
