Do people in other countries program in English?
I was browsing Stack Overflow’s programming section and came across an interesting topic asking if programmers in other countries code in English. This answer from a Canadian is hilarious:
I’m from Canada, but live in the States now.
It took me a while to get used to writing boolean variables with an “Is” prefix, instead of the “Eh” suffix that Canadians use when programming.
For example:
MyObj.IsVisible
MyObj.VisibleEh
I should name my boolean variables that way from now on.

Hum ! I’m French but it’s not completely true ! In school, we’re trying to code in English to improve ours ! Sure, our english is not perfect but it could be better that the Canadian guy !
