How does anyone in the UK program when our keyboards lack octothorpe?

We have our stupid money sign where the octothorpe should be.

TIL there are Americans who have no idea about other keyboard layouts… it’s next to the enter key, above right shift key…

Oh right. Well on Windows it’s to the left of the Enter key, above the right shift key.

Why would you post this without even checking your claim first? Even just asking an AI would have been a sure fire way for you to save face and not post this

I tried it, none of the methods work. What do you do?

Isn't that on the right under the right square bracket by the enter key, you don't even have to hold shift to input it.

On mac keyboards it's option (alt) 3

You mean "#". What's on the third key to the right of "L"?
