>soo... if one had a control for picking pickled peppers, would one use the prefix "ppp" (pickled pepper picker)? If it was authored by Peter Piper would we use "pppp" instead? BTW, how many people nowadays actually know what a peck is? or how many are in a bushel?
PPP is reserved for anything related to the
parapsihopatologija forum.
And I took care to say that this 4 or 5 character prefix is not a rule, it's for the special cases. And even if it was, I'd rename it (no matter how long that takes) the moment I'd see that the name has too many of the most frequent characters for initials.
>Has anybody pondered what Hungarian notation would be like when applied to calculators made by Hewlett Packard which use Reverse Polish Notation?
Has anyone else mentioned that these are called Hungarian and Polish because nobody in the West was able to understand that Simonyi is pronounced with a sh and a ny, and to pronounce (and memorize) Łukasiewicz? I guess the whole systems would crash if Hungary and Poland each dared to give the world one more guy with a notable notation.
