Programs must be written for people to read, and only incidentally for machines to execute >The thing is, our brains will pause to process words that have strange mixed casing, such as siLIcoN vAllEy, in order to translate it to the more familiar Silicon Valley, but w will eventually manage to translate the word regardless of casing. So proper casing is important with the written word. Computers, on the other hand, tend to have a lot of extra CPU cycles to process and translate whatever is thrown at them, as long as spacing is done right (e.g., Silicon Valley vs. sILIconvAlLEY), so why not make it easy (as in VFP versus C#)
