Hi!

Is there any (noticeable) difference between using short variable names and long ones? I rather use variable names such as $firstnamecounter than just $i, $john, or $doe (I've seen code where the developer used almost exclusively his first and last name for just about everything). I try to give each important variable a name that is descriptive and unique within my project so that I can name the same thing by the same name across multiple scripts.

I just wonder if I should get used to a different naming convention now that my projects get more complex.
