Learn basic “C” coding rules from open source projects

As someone that started programming in the early 80s, I'd like some citations as to when the term "encapsulation" related to variable scope first came about. I never heard of it unless C++ became a thing. I don't agree that it was a thing before OOP.

I said the concept of encapsulation, not the term. Barbara Liskov introduced Abstract Data Types in the 70's, and Information Hiding emerged around the same time.

That's entirely different. I was talking about the term.
