Only if you're using a bad font that doesn't differentiate between I and l

Fixed-width Serif is the only way to go when doing any sort of coding.
However, Comic Sans is a surprisingly decent alternative if you want to use a Sans Serif typeface. The letters are easily distinguishable.

monospace means the width of the "whole" character is always the same, but the width of the visible part of the character is not (imagine how large the dot would have to be for that to work)

Even if this is lowercase and the dot on the

differentiates then thel
would still be a dot.9 0 Reply- Vent @lemm.ee

We should follow Calculus's example and represent all lowercase l's as ℓ
Or just add serifs to I even in sans serif fonts

Last I remember, serif fonts were easier to read on physical mediums, and sans was easier on digital mediums. Never learned why though so, grain of salt and all that

They actually did different widths at the start, very impressive. But that tapered off, the W should be much wider.

So the I is lower case, but not the J?

It could be uppercase. This doesn't specify the font used.

J is in lower case too, the line on the right of the i is shorter than the others.
