    Unhappy How can I print unicode symbols in c++ windows console ?

    I want to print '▲▼►◄' in my c++ console but the problem is when I write
    Code:
    std::wcout << "\u25B2"
    It produces capital gamma every time instead of printing ▲ or ▼.
    How can I fix this ?

    All advice is offered in good faith only. All my code is tested (unless stated explicitly otherwise) with the latest version of Microsoft Visual Studio (using the supported features of the latest standard) and is offered as examples only - not as production quality. I cannot offer advice regarding any other c/c++ compiler/IDE or incompatibilities with VS.
