In many of the Go tutorials (A Tour of Go, How to Write Go Code) and even the main golang.org's page 'try it' the Chinese characters for 'World', 世界
, are used in place of 'Hello World'.
What is the reason for this?
Go was developed by Google and lists a worldwide collection of contributers, so not being particularly English (or US)-centric isn't surprising. But I can't find anything in the documentation or history that points to why this is.
Maybe I'm just imagining a quirk?
