1.7. C# Naming Conventions

C# has some very straightforward naming conventions. These are universally used by C# programmers, and differ in some cases from conventions commonly used in Python or other coding languages.

Again, these are conventions. Not following them will not prevent your code from running, as long as you are following C#’s naming rules.

Identifier Type	Convention	Examples
Method parameters, local variables, and fields	Start with a lowercase letter and use camelCase	id, firstName
Methods, properties, and class names	Start with an uppercase letter and capitalize each word; do not use hyphens or underscores (aka PascalCase)	Program , HelloWorld, TempConv
