This may be getting too off topic, but just today in class our prof wrote the variable "b" as "d" and then upon realizing his mistake corrected it and said "the other b". Not sure if this is dyslexia or right/left related (or if the two are very similar).<div>

<br>But the phenomenon of confusing left and right is so common, that in Québec, we routinely call «gauche» «l'autre droite» ("left" is also known as "the other right"), and call «droite» «l'autre gauche» ("right" is also known as "the other left"), whenever someone picks the wrong direction after being given an instruction.<br>
