(Fellow Swede here). I really want to agree with you, but in practice, the difference between "internal" and "external" is not always clear. For example, if I was producing a printed document in Swedish, I would definitely use decimal commas. (By the way, the time now is not 10:54 — it's 10.54, if you are to believe "Svenska Skrivregler" :-) ) However, when printing output in a terminal window, a comma means that I can't copy-paste that number into that interactive Python session in another window. Coordinates as lat, lon means I can't copy-paste into PostGIS. Makes one long for those LISP systems of the legends, where the system kept track of where things on screen came from, so if the program printed a coordinate and you copied it from the terminal, it was copied as a coordinate, not as text... |
