Is it possible now that sagemath is under Python 3 to use greek letters as variables ? I remember this answer by tmonteil "it is not possible to use unicode λ in variables names, since Sage relies on Python 2, which does not allow it, so you have to wait the migration of Sage to Python 3 for that."
Let's see...
sage: λ = 89
sage: print(λ)
89
sage: print("λ is %s" % λ)
λ is 89
sage: print("λ is {}".format(λ))
λ is 89
sage: print(f"λ is {λ}")
λ is 89
sage: print("λ² + λ is {}".format(λ^2+λ))
λ² + λ is 8010
sage: probabilité = 1/3
sage: q = 1 - probabilité
sage: q
2/3... ça marche...
Ok super and how do you have access to greek characters. Window 10 says [Windows key +.] but it doen't works
Write
\phiTAB(meaning press tab key)
FrédéricC Thanks but to be precise the cod must be \phi<tab>
