minus-squareNeatNitlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·5 months agoI think Excel formulas also use this, but it’s been a long time so I might be misremembering.

minus-squaredan@upvote.aulinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-25 months agoDepends on the dialect. I mostly use Presto and MySQL at work, and both allow !=. Presto also lets you use NOT for booleans - instead of WHERE foo = false, you can do WHERE NOT foo.

minus-squarelemming@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up5·5 months agoIf you want to be able to write practically anything on mobile, including ≠, ≈, ‰, ℝ etc., have a look at Unexpected keyboard. No spellcheck or autocomplete, though.
minus-squarelud@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·5 months ago I was on mobile so I didn’t have a .XCompose available to type. I feel the opposite. On mobile I have much easier access to special characters. I just need to hold down characters to get more variants.
minus-squareKairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·5 months agoYup, ≠ is right “under” =. As is ≈.
minus-squaredan@upvote.aulinkfedilinkarrow-up2·5 months agoSQL is definitely a programming language. Most dialects are Turing-complete in some way. Some allow custom functions and stored procedures.
minus-squareazalty@jlai.lulinkfedilinkarrow-up3·edit-25 months agoDamn I never understood it but now it makes sense thanks to you Yea it’s ugly 😭
minus-squareskulbuny@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-25 months agoF# definitely and maybe Haskell and OCaml as well? Elixir and Erlang use it as a binary concatenation operator.
minus-squarePhoenix3875@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·5 months agoYes for OCaml. Haskell’s inequality is defined as /= (for ≠). <> is usually the Monoid mappend operator (i.e. generalized binary concatenation).

BASIC. At least VB.
