Agreed. I'd like Python to support proper mathematical symbols like ∞ for
float('inf'), ≠ for not-equal, ≤ for greater-than-or-equal, and ≥ for

This would be joyful! At least with the subset of operations that already exist/exist as operators, the possibility of using these wouldn't affect anyone not using them (like the set/intersection notation mentioned in another post).

I'm not very optimistic about anything like this ever being accepted into python main, however (I can't imagine it being terribly complicated to add to the accepted language, though).
