# Code explanation:
#
# 1. The script imports the subprocess and time modules.
# 2. It enters an infinite loop that continuously checks for the current
# layout.
# 3. The subprocess.run() function is used to call the hyprctl command
# and capture its output.
# 4. The output is decoded from bytes to a string and processed to extract the
# layout information.
# 5. Based on the layout, the script prints the corresponding symbol.
# 6. The script then sleeps for 1 second before checking the layout again,
# allowing it to update the output in real-time as the layout changes.
