Programming - PascalCase definition with example

In this article, we would like to explain the concept of the PascalCase naming style.

Example:

The main idea is to:

1. always start the name with a capital letter,
2. mark words join using capital letters.
3. the abbreviation:
   • when starts the name:
     • must be started with a capital letter,
     • can be written with all capital letters,
   • when is located inside the name:
     • must be started with a capital letter,
     • can be written with all capital letters, 
     • can be capitalized to make the name more readable.

Hint: using abbreviations select rules to make, as possible, names readable.

Other examples:
