🎀 Perl::...seVars(3pm) 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to this User Contributed Perl Documentation page 💅 it’s all about Perl::Critic::Policy::NamingConventions::ProhibitMixedCaseVars, and it is giving “name your variables correctly or catch these vibes.” 🫶

💅 NAME 💅

Perl::Critic::Policy::NamingConventions::ProhibitMixedCaseVars — write "$my_variable = 42" instead of "$MyVariable = 42".

🏚️ AFFILIATION 🏚️

This Policy is part of the Perl::Critic::Deprecated distribution. Yes, deprecated era, but still iconic in its own way 🫶.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so Conway’s recommended naming convention is to use lower-case words separated by underscores. Well-recognized acronyms can be in ALL CAPS, but must be separated by underscores from other parts of the name. No cap, that’s the whole vibe ✨

the slay list is on top, the not-it list is on the bottom 😭✅

my $foo_bar   #ok
my $foo_BAR   #ok
my @FOO_bar   #ok
my %FOO_BAR   #ok

my $FooBar   #not ok
my $FOObar   #not ok
my @fooBAR   #not ok
my %fooBar   #not ok

🎛️ CONFIGURATION 🎛️

This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options. That’s it — no secret extra knobs, just the standard options, periodt 💅
