camelcase

camelCase


   A variable in a programming language is sait to be camelCased 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 camelCased 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.
