I am in search of any rigourous,
scientific, academic or industrial studies
comparing naming conventions in
C++ or similar languages such as
Ada:
Specifically, are names formed with
underscores more or less readable
than names formed with MixedCase
StudlyCaps camelCase?

Hi, I'm interested in getting started in the programming world. I've dabbled
in C, C++ and VB6. Which would be the best language to focus my attention to
regarding the following considerations:
Hireability
Portability
Flexibility
The likely candidates seem to be Java, VB.Net, C, C++, C#.

we have some Python code we're planning to GPL. However, bits of it were
cut&pasted from some wxPython-licenced code to use as a starting point
for implementation. It is possible that some fragments of this code
remains unchanged at the end.
How should we refer to this in terms of copyright statements and bundled
Licence files? Is there,...

As many people know, I think that garbage collection is a good
solution for many memory allocation problems.
I am aware however, that nothing is "the silver bullet", not
even the GC.
A recent article in slashdot

proves that.

Is there any trick to get rid of having to type the annoying,
character-eating "self." prefix everywhere in a class? Sometimes I
avoid OO just not to deal with its verbosity. In fact, I try to use
Ruby anywhere speed is not crucial especially for @ prefix is better-
looking than self.
But things grow -- is there any metaprogramming tricks...

there seems to be a serious problem with allowing numbers to grow in a
nearly unbounded manner, as int/long unification does: it hides bugs.
most of the time, i expect my numbers to be small. 2**31 is good
enough for most uses of variables, and when more is needed, 2**63
should do most of the time.
granted, unification allows code to work...

Hello All!
I'am novice in python, and I find one very bad thing (from my point of view) in
language. There is no keyword or syntax to declare variable, like 'var' in
Pascal, or special syntax in C. It can cause very ugly errors,like this:
epsilon=0
S=0
while epsilon<10:
S=S+epsilon
