Names

Names are user-defined strings that name defined items. All names (variable names, function names, etc.) follow the same rules.

Names are UTF-8 strings. The following values are excluded:

• Any reserved keyword
• Any whitespace character
• .
• :
• =
• " or '
• [ or ]
• { or }
• ( or )

Convention

• Variables use lower_snake_case
• Functions use lower_snake_case
• Generic Types use UpperCamelCase but prefer single letters such as A.
• Data Types, aliases, etc. use UpperCamelCase
