Well, we kinda do when you can say "this python program" the problem with a lot of math is that you can't even tell which manual to look up.
- nkrisc 11mo agoSomeone not educated in programming would not know that a given text is Python source code.
- worthless-trash 11mo agoSame problem, but unlike math notation, it is MUCH clearer and even my 10 year old newphew can tell python from javascript and C.
- nkrisc 11mo agoI would wager that a vast majority of people on the planet could not distinguish Python from JavaScript from C.
- worthless-trash 11mo agoWhen it says "this python" program, they dont need to, it says its python. Math notation doesn't have that clarity.
