Variable Names

A variable can have a short name (like x and y) or a more descriptive name (age, carname, total_volume).

Variable names should be descriptive (age,carname,ect.) Rules for Unv variables:

A variable name must start with a letter or the underscore character
A variable name cannot start with a number
A variable name can only contain alpha-numeric characters and underscores (A-z, 0-9, and _ )
Variable names are case-sensitive (age, Age and AGE are three different variables)

Legal variable names:

myvar =  "John"
my_var =  "John"
_my_var =  "John"
myVar =  "John"
MYVAR =  "John"
myvar2 =  "John"

Illegal variable names:

2myvar =  "John"
my-var =  "John"
my var =  "John"

Remember that variable names are case-sensitive

Multi Words Variable Names

Variable names with more than one word can be difficult to read.

There are several techniques you can use to make them more readable:

Each word, except the first, starts with a capital letter:

myVariableName =  "John"

Each word starts with a capital letter:

MyVariableName =  "John"

Each word is separated by an underscore character:

my_variable_name =  "John"

Snake Case is the convention the UNV convention
