Not sure why you're downvoted; it's simply true that ASCII is not universal. The "A" in ASCII stands for American.
I am a monolingual English speaker but I think I should be able to write ÷, ≤ and ≥ in my Go code, and I think I should be able to do maths using π.

- sokoloff 5y agoGiven that the go community does not seem to hold this as a majority opinion, you might consider whether an editor translation layer could allow you to tailor your environment to your preferences while maintaining source-level compatibility with the broader go community. If compatibility is not as important to you, privately forking the language is also an option, but that seems fraught with peril of your code dying with you.

- walshemj 5y agoFine do math's using π this is about programming
