Visual Studio ALT code symbols

I'm looking for a list of ALT code symbols within Visual Studio 2010.

Specifically, I was looking for the PI symbol. I did a little search and found that it should be ALT+227 or ALT+960. I've tried both in VS but the symbols provided are different, hence why I'm asking this question here.

Help greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

ALT+227, based on IBM Code Page 437 / MS-DOS, is correct for Greek Small Letter Pi π. See here: Windows Alt Code Symbols

ALT+960, which is the Unicode Decimal Codepoint for Greek Small Letter Pi π is also correct. See here: Unicode Table - Greek Small Letter Pi

at least in visual studio 2013, pi is at alt+995. I don't know why it is different than in the rest of windows, and I typed it out of luck while randomly stabbing around for lambda
