Python Brain Teasers

## Let's try it!
Try executing the code below to verify the result:

## Code explanation

There are two surprising things here:
- A valid identifier is `π`.
- The code `355 / 113` computes to a float value.

Let’s start with `π` (the Greek letter pi). Python 3 changed the default encoding for the source files to `UTF-8` and allows Unicode identifiers.

Writing in this style can be fun, but in practice, it can make our coworkers’ lives harder. We can easily type `π` in the **Vim editor**, but most editors and IDEs will require more effort.
