Java Term of the Week: CamelCase

Classes and interfaces in Java programs tend to be named using compound words. I find myself being quite specific about what a class does and that leads me to want to use more than one word joined together (e.g., PlayingCard, CustomerAccount).

Assuming that I'm thinking carefully about my naming scheme I will remember to follow standard naming conventions and use CamelCase. It's where the first letter of each word is written with a capital letter.
