There are mainly
four different casing styles that is followed while programming, they are
1) Camel casing (also called as lower camel casing)
2) Pascal casing (also called as upper camel casing)
3) Upper
casing
4) Lower
casing
Camel casing – Capitalizes the first character of each word except the first
word
In camel
casing the first letter of the first word is in lower casing.
If any words are concatenated then the first
letter of the concatenated word is in uppercase followed by lower case
characters.
Example: calculateInterest, operationResults, propertyDescriptor, htmlTag
Usage:
i) Variable
names
ii) Object
reference variables
iii) method
arguments
Pascal casing – Capitalizes
the first character of each word (including acronyms over two letters in
length)
In Pascal
casing the first letter of the word is in uppercase following characters are in
lowercase.
If any
words are concatenated then the first letter of the word is also in uppercase
followed by lower case characters.
Example: DataAccessClass, PropertyDescriptor, HtmlTag, IOStream
Usage:Class
names
Upper casing - In upper
casing all the characters are in upper case.
Example: METHOD_POST
Usage: Constants
Lower casing - In lower casing all the characters are
in lower case.
Example: objectvariable
Usage: Variables
