    const ε: f64 = 0.00001f64;
    const Π: f64 = 3.14f64;
    }

## Changes to the language reference

> Lexer:
> IDENTIFIER :
> XID_start XID_continue*
> | `_` XID_continue+

An identifier is any nonempty Unicode string of the following form:

Either

- The first character has property `XID_start`
- The remaining characters have property `XID_continue`

Or

- The first character is `_`
- The identifier is more than one character, `_` alone is not an identifier
- The remaining characters have property `XID_continue`

that does not occur in the set of strict keywords.

> Note: `XID_start` and `XID_continue` as character properties cover the character ranges used to form the more familiar C and Java language-family identifiers.
