post  Just a small wonder

QWERTYman (253)
I have seen, on numerous occasions, stuff like

1
2
3
int iInt;
double dNum;
bool bZero_or_one;

Is this aesthetic, necessary, or a format choice?
Just a thought.

I believe that is the Hungarian notation for variables.

It is what the feeble-minded use to remember the types of their variables and objects.

If they are so "feeble-minded", why don't we just tell them not to via Jedi mind trick?

I am such a nerd.

I am quite a fan of Hungarian notation for variable names. :)

It's not so much for you to remember, but it's an easy way for other developers to pickup on the type of variable they are looking at when reading the code.
