@Austin: do you use self._name or just _name in your code?

I’ve seen self._name usage in swifts standard libraries and didn’t liked it at 
first glance, but it feels alright now.

My personal habit is to write self. everywhere it’s possible, because as soon 
as some private variable is nested inside a closure I’ll be forced to write 
self._name which does look odd if every other _name usage doesn’t contain 
self.. Again that’s my personal view.

All in all, other "Hungarian Style" conventions, that is modifying the name to 
indicate types and uses, are not used in Swift or among most Swift developers.

I’d like to talk about your personal coding styles in swift for its access 
control.

Remember these variable names like __magic or _spell or even garbage_?

Sure swift solves the synthesize problem but there might be old habits that let 
us write such code.

Here are some examples:

internal _name
internal i_name
private __name
private p_name

// not sure where `garbage_` would fit
I’d love to see your responses and opinions what and why the style you choose 
suits you.
