Get utf-8 error with degree symbol about jlcode HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi @rs7q5,
you are probably not doing anything wrong here. The degree symbol (I hope you talk about that one:T = 22 °C) has simply not been defined yet for compilation with pdftex because nobody has ever used that.
But I have just added it the package now. Try to download the latest version and tell me if everything works as expected now!

@wg030 it looks like that fixed it! thanks for the quick response and fix!

Is the symbol the same as using Alt+0176? I think I can't remember which degree symbol Julia technically uses it.

In which context do you use the degree symbol with Julia? To be honest I have never used that in Julia and don't know where it can be applied.

Well, according to https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1.7/manual/unicode-input/ the hex code ot he Degree Sign is "U+000B0", which translates to "0176" as decimal number, so it should be the same!

I use it in comments and strings for names of things. but yeah I know julia uses that and then latex uses a variety of different symbols like \degree and stuff or \circ. I can't remember the difference there, but if it what you uses translates back to 0176 then that should be fine since it is the julia code script anyway and not latex!

from jlcode.

Yes, the symbol in the Julia code is what is important here.
As a matter of fact, we could use just about any latex command to which the Julia code symbol should be translated to (in the case of pdflatex). I used \circ, but if you like \degree or anything else more due to a nicer output, feel free to change that in line 2031 of jlcode.sty and open a PR to share your experience!
Since the symbol in the Julia code is the right one (U+000B0 = Alt+0176), we can close this issue, I guess.

Correct, I'm not sure if you'd notice a difference in the listings to be honest. Since it should convert to Julia.

I'll go ahead and close this issue as it is solved. Thanks again!
