* unfortunate inconsistency
- C code usually uses underscores to structure names
- ```
+ ```
variable_in_C
- ```
+ ```
- In contrast, C++ code usually uses camelCase
- ```
+ ```
variableInCPlusPlus
- ```
+ ```
+ for variable names and PascalCase
+ ```
+ ClassInCPlusPlus
+ ```
+ for names of classes and other types
where the two meet, use your best judgment and go for best consistency
- (i.e., where does the variable "originate")
+ (i.e., where does the name "originate")
* there is a strong preference for lower case file names; sometimes conventions
or outside requirements make camelCase filenames the better (or only) choice,
