We write "camel" in the picture, but it is a dromedary. And nope, "camel" does not mean also "dromedary". -- Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.105.207.25 (talk) 09:50, 27 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Per Camel, "The one-humped dromedary makes up 94% of the world's camel population". And the original file had two humps, but there is such a thing as artistic license which was used to make it one hump with "camelCase" cleverly written on it. I find your argument unconvincing.

Lisp and Dashes

Regarding, "Some early programming languages, notably Lisp (1958) and COBOL (1959), addressed this problem by allowing a hyphen ("-") to be used between words of compound identifiers, as in "END-OF-FILE": Lisp because it worked well with prefix notation (a Lisp parser would not treat a hyphen in the middle of a symbol as a subtraction operator) ..." This is not the reason. In fact dashes are permitted at both the beginning and the end of lisp symbols without any confusion about minus signs. Yes, lisp uses minus for subtraction. The real distinction is that lisp is delimited by spaces and certain other reserved characters. Therefore

a-b

is a single symbol while

a - b

is 3 different symbols.Palehose5 (talk) 18:01, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Strict camel case

[1]https://medium.com/@thomasreggi/enforcing-strict-camelcase-5332c53a7484

Is that a common thing, worth mentioning in the article (more prominent, that it currently is)? Alien4 (talk) 15:49, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find any usages of the term "strict camel case" besides that post, and that source doesn't seem reliable enough to add to the article. But the idea is common and discussed in the last paragraph of Camel_case#Programming_and_coding. I cited the Google style guide which gives a precise algorithm.

Example of Tibetan language

"In Tibetan proper names like rLobsang, the "r" stands for a prefix glyph in the original script that functions as tone marker rather than a normal letter."

As far as I know, there is no Tibetan proper name transliterated rLobsang, but there is the name བློ་བཟང་, transliterated to blo bzang in Wylie transliteration, which is sometimes written bLo bzang to mark the root letter of the first word. 2A02:8388:A02:9B00:8772:D5AB:16B6:6DA5 (talk) 14:04, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Examples of camel case?

Aren't examples like YouTube and FedEx PascalCase, not CamelCase? Didlidoo (talk) 03:10, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They are all cited, take it up with the authors. Per this article, PascalCase is a type of CamelCase so they are not mutually exclusive. Mathnerd314159 (talk) 19:37, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
