Look who everyone is solving for now.

I use the whole alphabet and more:

  • a, b, c, d for constants
  • e is Euler‘s constant
  • f, g, h for functions
  • i, j, k, l for indices but can be used for natural or whole numbers
  • m, n for natural numbers but can be used as indices
  • o, p, q, r, unreserved although I sometimes use p and q in a rational equation like: p / q
  • s, t function parameters
  • u, v, w vectors
  • x, y, z variables

Greek letters for angles or literally anything else.

P (And E) are for stochastic functions.

Like i, j, and k joining programming

does not need any more fucking exposure, it's already a vowel. Not everyone can be "E"

EDIT : i even gets a variety of forms like i, ı and í.

Like I said, 𝕏 is sometimes used to represent a mathematical set. This means it that it has a Unicode codepoint, specifically U+1D54F.

Took me way too way tlomg to realize this wasn't about tech companies . . . Twitter was part of google? Who owns Math?

If I can decide myself I usually like using 'abc...' just feels more nice :3
