Camelcase

CamelCase

CamelCase (or camel case), also known as medial capitals or Pascal case, is a term which refers to the practice of writing compound words having one or more internal uppercase letters. Such words may be formed, for instance, from phrases in which the elements are joined without spaces with each element having a capital letter within the compound. Pascal case words always start with a capital letter, but camel case allows the first letter to be either upper or lower case, as in "LaBelle", "BackColor", or "iPod". The name comes from the uppercase "humps" in the middle of the compound word, suggestive of the humps of a camel. The practice is known by many other names, the most common of which is Pascal case for upper camel case.
