On a tangential topic, naive question: what does the programming language landscape looks like in China?
English is almost universally spoken among western college graduates, and it is the same character set. But I can’t imagine the difficulty of learning programming compounded by it being in a language you barely understand with a character set you are unfamiliar with. Did Chinese language based programming languages appear? Or is everyone eating the bullet (or perhaps I am overstating the difficulty, hard to get an idea of how much english the average chinese college graduate is exposed to).
