#286324 — The stupid case sensitivity debate

FromSnit <usenet@gallopinginsanity.com>
Date2015-03-26 19:11 -0700
SubjectThe stupid case sensitivity debate
Message-ID<D13A0A4C.4924D%usenet@gallopinginsanity.com>
It has resurfaced. Why, who knows? DFS wanted to troll me over some comment
about it an cc wanted to defend his unsupported claims. Without rehashing it
a million times, this is what was found in the past (with one bullet pointed
added to the "case sensitivity" side in this current rehashing of this old
debate.

If someone thinks I am missing some evidence let me know... I will add it.
For either side. But currently it seems MASSIVELY one sides.


In support of case insensitivity:
* every college we can find
* every university we can find
* every source found through Google Scholar
* and even every blogger - mind boggling to see such agreement
* a whole list of specific affects to back the view

In support of case sensitivity:
* a language designed to be backward compatible with C is a lot like C!
* popular equals best: go QWERTY and teaspoons (in the U.S)!
* code snippets showing case sensitivity can be used
* makes interfacing with other common languages.

If you think I left some out please let me know what they are.





From an older post:
--------
* Every college and university found to take a stance on the issue
  (I have provided full links elsewhere - if you want them just ask):

    Clark Atlanta University
    Dublin City University
    Eastern Michigan University
    GeorgeTown University
    Ithaca College
    Michigan State University
    Purdue University
    Southeastern Louisiana University
    Southern Illinois University
    University of Hawaii
    University of Maine
    University of Maryland, Baltimore County
    Virginia Tech
    Western Michigan University

* Every source found through Google Scholar:

    Advanced CORBA(R) Programming with C++
    Essential C++ by Jarrell C. Grout, Robert G. Strader,
        and John B. Hanks
        <http://goo.gl/2AR9ZF>
    The case for Ada at the USAF academy
        Abstract available here:
        <http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=958430>

* Every blogger writing about the topic:

    <http://www.somethinkodd.com/oddthinking/?p=110>
    <http://www.somethinkodd.com/oddthinking/?p=114>
    <http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/1114>
    <http://goo.gl/g8FbNF>
    <http://goo.gl/5zT2Cn>

Now of course the final categories, bloggers, are less authoritative than
the other two, but it is truly amazing how there is not a single
counter-example that has been shown in *any* of the categories. I expected
to find *some* reference disagreeing... and still expect I or someone else
will.

And if this does happen you can bet that one source will be deemed by those
who find it convenient to trump all the others. :)

    * The first languages only had upper case
    * Case sensitivity was probably introduced by Unix and hence C.
    * Disadvantage:
      Poor readability, since names that look alike to a human are
      different
    * Advantages:
      Larger namespace
      Ability to use case to signify classes of variables
      (e.g., make constants be in uppercase)
    -----
    
<http://computing.dcu.ie/~humphrys/Notes/UNIX/intro.html>
    -----
    Is case sensitivity a good thing? Or is it a flaw in UNIX (and
    C/C++)?
    
    Advantages of case sensitivity:
    * More readable code. You know what to expect.
    * More variables. num and NUM and Num
    * Set up conventions, so that NUM probably refers to a
      compile-time-coded constant, num is a real-time-changing
      variable, etc. Quicker/simpler searches on file lists, since can
      just search for the literal string.
    * Better to be case-sensitive for passwords. - Larger space to
      pick from. Harder to guess. Good to be "unforgiving" for security.
      
    Not much return for such huge disadvantages:
    * Millions of programmer and user hours lost on case not right.
    * UNIX web servers everywhere have constant log of "404 Not Found"
      which are really hits from people who noted a URL by hand and
      didn't know it should be case sensitive. (Web server should
      really have some logic to redirect of course.)

        (e.g. IndexOutOfBoundsException)
      * In C, however, exclusive use of lowercase for names.
    - C, C++, and Java names are case sensitive -> rose, Rose, ROSE
      are distinct names "What about Readability"
    ------
    
<http://umcs.maine.edu/~cmeadow/courses/cos301/cos301-5.pdf>
    -----
    * Case sensitive languages have a readability issue: names that
      look alike are different
    * Case sensitive languages that do not require variable
      declarations also have a writability issue: it's too easy to
      accidentally create a new variable
    -----

    
Ouch. Come on, the consensus in COLA *must* be supported somewhere, right?
This is just getting silly - I truly am shocked not a single source can be
found in support of case sensitivity. Not at all what I expected.

So, are you going to remove it from the list or not?

Dude, Georgetown is a real university. I don't give a shit about NCAA 
sports but even *I* have heard of the Georgetown Hoyas. He has no reason 
to remove it.

If you think they're the same I propose that you spell it "GeorgeTown"
in your admission application essay.  My guess is that they would
suggest that "John Hopkins" might be a better fit for you.

Yet on their site they use GEORGETOWN a lot.

And you knew what I meant.

And keep in mind the evidence you got that name from... it was overwhelming
and the "counter" has been pretty much NOTHING.

In support of case insensitivity:
* every college we can find
* every university we can find
* every source found through Google Scholar
* and even every blogger - mind boggling to see such agreement
* a whole list of specific affects to back the view

In support of case sensitivity:
* a language designed to be backward compatible with C is a lot like C!
* popular equals best: go QWERTY and teaspoons (in the U.S)!
* code snippets showing case sensitivity can be used
* makes interfacing with other common languages.

If you think I left some out please let me know what they are.

They only use it in titles and headings.  Nowhere do they refer
to themselves as "GeorgeTown."  And as I told Slimer, I would not
advise spelling it that way on an admissions application essay
unless you want your application rejected.

It showed that an error in case is still understood by humans.

I did not make the error on purpose... but wish I had. :)

Hint: look at the spelling owl referenced, then look at the Subject line.

Except that it is essentially impossible not to understand which school 
Snit was referencing despite the slight difference in case. Whether you 
write it as Georgetown or GeorgeTown, the city cited is the same. In 
fact, I would go as far as to say that the GeorgeTown casing is a lot 
more appropriate considering it is a Town which was originally called 
George and became known as Georgetown with time.

Either way, what a stupid debate. I respectfully withdraw from it and 
retract any statements I've made in the past in support of 
case-insensitivity. Clearly, it's ideal in some areas.

I made a mistake with case. And no sane person would be confused.

A great example!

If you think that's funny then you need help. I recommend a therapist.

You can find a therapist at www.TherapistFinder.com

But don't confuse that site with www.TheRapistFinder.com  -  they're not the 
same.
