# Function names - lowercase, with words separated by underscores as necessary to improve readability.
# e.g. def my_function():
# 
# Variable names - the same convention as function names.
# e.g. my_variable = 1
# 
# mixedCase - allowed only in contexts where that's already the prevailing style (e.g. threading.py), to retain backwards compatibility.
