Naming Connventions

What is Naming Convention?

Naming convention is something which answers a question “How to name an element.” 
In programming, it can be defined as set of rules which tells how a identifier will be named, like

• What all characters are permissible?
• How it should be formatted or organized?
  And so on...

When it comes to naming, it's a quite contentious topic.

The answer is

• Respectable programming is that where code is healthy written, which can be easily read and apprehend. 
  And for readability naming convention is must. No one can read my name if I write like “sukeshmarla”, but can if it's like “Sukesh Marla”.
• When we talk about a project, we have a team. And it will be a very difficult when every programmer in a team use his own way or standard for defining variables. Difficulties in both management and understanding. It becomes even more difficult when a team member resigns and new guys take handover 
  So why every company defines centralized Naming Conventions and brings consistency.
• Readability and consistency reduced effort needed to read and understand the code (especially written by other developers).
• A proper naming convention with modern enhanced Intellisense feature drastically improves the development speed.
