when I prefix my .py file using utf-8 or Latin-1 I always get bad charcacters in OUTPUT or in matplotlib figure text.
Post 'Working with UTF-8 encoding in Python source' does not answer my question which is specific to vs code.
In:
`# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-`
print('à')
Out:
�
matplotlib text with utf-8 encoding right display >
In:
`# -*- coding: Latin-1 -*-`
print('à')
Out:
à
matplotlib text with Latin-1 wrong display >
I tried different encodings but I never get proper outputs
In vs code, I've checked Preferences > Settings > code runner : Run in Terminal so I no longer need to use the utf-8 code substitute in the plain text, I can now write "à" or any accentuated letter directly so OUTPUT and matplotlib are OK.
