Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-000155

A naming convention where a multi-word phrase is written without spaces, and each word after the first begins with a capital letter. This practice is frequently used for variable names, function names, and class names in many programming languages to improve readability. A variation called upper camel case, or PascalCase, capitalizes the first word as well, and is often used for class and type names.
