I have a Chinese version of the K&R C book. The keywords are english, 
but all the variable names and such are chinese.

Plus, from what I've seen, chinese computer keyboards tend to be latin 
keyboards with software to translate phonetically, in essence. I imagine 
there are some actual chinese keyboards out there, but I never saw one 
when I was in china, and the chinese people I know who don't speak any 
english use latin keyboards.
