I've seen some gross violations of this rule: a maintenance coder (who I never met) called Ken Eagle had changed: if he needed extra variables he invariably used KEN[0-9] for numeric variables and EAGLE[0-9] for alphanumeric variables. It was [ahem] character-forming to maintain programs that Ken Eagle had made changes to. I've not seen a Java program that has been mutilated in this fashion yet, but there nothing to stop this sort of idiocy being applied to Java code. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org |
