Naming Convention

Terminology

• Camel Case (camelCase): In this standard, the first letter of the word always in small letter and after that each word starts with a capital letter.
• Pascal Case (PascalCase): In this the first letter of every word is in capital letter.
• Underscore Prefix (_underScore): For underscore ( __ ), the word after _ use camelCase terminology.

Coding Standards and Naming Conventions

Native DataType

Always use native datatype instead of .NET CTS type. For example, use int instead of Int32 or Int64.

//Good  
private int _salary = 100;  
  
//Bad  
private Int16 _salary = 100;  
private Int32 _salary=100;  

Class

Always use PascalCase for class names. Try to use noun or noun phrase for class name. Do not give prefixes. Do not use underscores.

public partial class About : Page  
{  
   //...  
}  

Methods

Always use PascalCase for method names. Use maximum 7 parameters in a method.

public string GetPosts(string postId)  
{  
   //...  
}  

Arguments and Local Variable

Always use camelCase with method arguments and local variables. Don't use Hungarian notation for variables.

public string GetPosts(string postId  
{  
   int numberOfPost = 0;   
}  

Property

Use PascalCase for property. Never use Get and Set as prefix with property name.

private int _salary = 100;  
public int Salary  
{  
    get  
    {  
        return _salary;  
    }  
    set  
    {  
        _salary = value;  
    }  
}  

Interface

Always use letter "I" as prefix with name of interface. After letter I, use PascalCase.

public interface IUser  
{  
   /// <summary>  
   /// Check user is exists or not  
   /// </summary>  
   /// <returns>return bool value</returns>  
   bool ValidateUser();  
} 

Private Member Variable

Always try to use camelCase terminology prefix with underscore ( _ ).

private int _salary = 100;  

Public Member Variable

Always use PascalCase for public member variable,

public int Salary = 100;  

Enum
Always use PascalCasing as default naming standard. 

enum MailType  
{  
   Html,  
   PlainText,  
   Attachment  
}  

Namespace

Always use PascalCase for namespace.

namespace NextProgramming.Domain
