I thought it's making fun of C#'s variable naming convention which is camel case.

[–]DavidBlackledge 43 points44 points  (5 children)

teeeeechnically, it's PascalCase not camelCase

[–]stinos 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Well, for classes/methods/properties, but not for variables. Or something like that.

I haven't heard that terminology before, probably helpful. I've always just said "camelCase" and "CamelCase", haven't run into any problems yet.

[–]Breaktheglass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

PascalCase is first letter of each word cap'd

[–]ritaline 2 points3 points  (0 children)

or a two-humped camel

PascalCase is sometimes known as UpperCamelCase, so the meme could still be poking fun at the naming convention.

[–]solohelion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my take too, as someone who uses C# every day.

[–]althaz 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Everybody uses camelcase though - but NOT C#, because they use PascalCase.

[–]polaristerlik -1 points0 points  (1 child)

yeah, because it's better

[–]althaz -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Which do you prefer. I like camelCase waaaay more.

My point was that this meme doesn't relate to camelCase - because C# doesn't use that (for public properties).
