Concise algorithms written in Julia
- one-letter variable names<p>- Greek letters<p>- glyphs with obscure latex codes<p>The last one in particular - how do you read this in your mind if you don't already know the name of the character? - "Hmm, that's a curly handwritten A". It's so disruptive to the thought process of the reader of your code if they don't already know the notation.<p>I really think that this is the opposite of beautiful. Code is about communicating with other people too. I also think that mixing code and math notation is liked by a vocal minority of Julia users but in the long term is harming the adoption of the language by beginners.
