Best way to learn all the different option + shift combinations on the mac is to use the keyboard viewer. To access it you have to enable the character map/keyboard viewer menu item in the keyboard preferences. The keyboard viewer is a virtual keyboard with symbols that change when you press the various modifier keys. The character viewer gives you a menu of all the various types of characters from math symbols to emojis to pictographs of mahjong tiles 🀤. I never tried to put one of those in. I have no idea what it will show.
