Hi all,
What would you think if we could write our code using unicode ?
It would be especially useful for scientific programming (we could use
the greek letters), it could also be nice to use emojis for some
variables. I don't see any bad consequences (apart from people that
would use misleading characters but that's already possible). I don't
know how hard it is to do that switch but it feels like it could be nice;
You can use a subset of unicode for identifiers.
See https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3131/ and
https://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html#identifiers
