El Wikipedia tiene la siguiente información acerca de este punto de código:
Alfa[1] (en mayúscula Α, en minúscula α; llamada en griego antiguo ἄλφα álpha /ál.pʰa/, en griego moderno άλφα álfa /ˈal.fa/)[2][3] es la primera letra del alfabeto griego. En griego antiguo el alfa era llamada [ˈalpʰa], nombre que deriva de la antigua letra fenicia ʾalp, 'buey'. Su origen gráfico es una cabeza de buey invertida. El alfa mayúscula tiene una forma idéntica a las dos letras principales que surgieron de ella: A latina y А cirílica.
Como es la primera letra del alfabeto, el alfa era usada para denotar el principio de algo, como opuesto de omega, que simbolizaba el fin. Por ejemplo, «Yo soy el Alfa y la Omega».
En el sistema de numeración griega tiene un valor de 1 (Α΄).
