I agree with you regarding the brackets - < >, ( ), etc. ... but / and \ have nothing to do with each other.
- bhauer 13y agoTrue. Still, I find it odd that they are not beside one another. Honestly, I don't really know why we have a \ key at all (and I'm a Windows user!). But there it is.
- kps 13y agoPoint of order! \ was invented specifically to pair with /, to write the ∧ and ∨ operators as /\ and \/. [1] http://www.bobbemer.com/BACSLASH.HTM http://www.bobbemer.com/BACSLASH.HTM
