Mostly unrelated, but I wish the field of math would step away from greek letter notatation and just make variable and function names readable as programmers do. I know there are historic reasons, and I'm sure that mathematicians' time is so valuable that they can't be bothered to write more than 1 character, but it's a real barrier to entry in my opinion.

  def α(β, γ):
      δ = β ** 2 + γ ** 2
      ε = δ ** 0.5
      return ε
  
  ζ = α(3, 4)
  print(ζ)
