Miscellaneous

There was a recent survey on the Code Project website that asked, “What notations do you use when coding?” I was surprised to see that nearly 53% of the respondants claimed to use Hungarian notation, with all but a few of those using prefixes (i.e. m_ for member variables). Now, I'm sure none of the respondants use only one naming convention, but I thought it was refreshing to see that Hungarian hasn't died - I am still a big fan. Generally, I use the following...

Local variables:  Hungarian (w/o prefixes)
Private properties:  Hungarian (w/ prefixes)
Protected/public properties/methods: Pascal casing
Method parameters: Camel casing
Markup tags/attributes: Camel casing

I am not surprised.
The primary goal for Coding conventions is to promote understanding between the team on the code being developed. And if the team is comfortable with hungarian and since probablly they've been using it for ages making the change out of it might not seem very advantageous.
