I'm reminded. Weren't there standard 50-something keyboards, and then 101 keyboards? And you actually COULDN'T do programming on the 50-key keyboards because literally standard symbols were missing?

No unicode. No keys. No mouse. No bitmap graphics. Just a hardwired terminal. Welcome to the 60s and 70s.

I have an excellent idea! I'll start programming using nothing but the greek alphabet, better yet unicode characters!

immutable π = 3.14;

writeln( ∑(values) );

x = x + ∆;

Oh, the horror!
