Camel Case¶
Camel case, also written camelCase is a way of writing names without spaces, where:
the first word starts with a lowercase letter
each following word starts with an uppercase letter
The capital letters create humps like a camel’s back: this is the origin of the name.
Camel case is often used for method and variable names. Class names, on the other hand, use Pascal case.
<?php
function calculatePrice(int $price): int {
return $price * SALE_TAX_RATE;
}
?>
