A variable in a programming language is sait to be d when all words but the
|
|
|
|
|
first are capitalized. This practice contrasts with the C tradition of
|
|
|
|
|
either running syllables together or marking syllable breaks with
|
|
|
|
|
underscores; thus, where a C programmer would write thisverylongname or
|
|
|
|
|
this_very_long_name , the d version would be thisVeryLongName. This practice
|
|
|
|
|
is common in certain language communities (formerly Pascal; today Java and
|
|
|
|
|
Visual Basic) and tends to be associated with object-oriented programming.
|
|
|
|
|
Compare BiCapitalization ; but where that practice is primarily associated
|
|
|
|
|
with marketing, camelCasing is not aimed at impressing anybody, and hackers
|
|
|
|
|
consider it respectable.
