lcname is a local character
pcname will never exist in my program, but it would be a public character
Why should I bother?
What is with prefixing variables with their types? It doesn't take me long to figure out (ie, no time) that if you are doing numeric manipulation to a variable, its a number!
Wouldn't it be better to define prefixes for where I expect the variable to be used? That way, if I end up in a debugger somewhere, I can tell where the variables were first defined.
And, what if I am moving variables into fields and fields into variables... Its a lot more convienant to call the variable the same as the field.
