All upper. All variables global to the program. Everything is untyped.
I've always wondered why anyone would induce an increased level of
complexity into an inherently simple language. It's part of the beauty
of the development environment.

a whole lot more, does this lead to or worsen carpel tunnel? Kind of a
serious concern.....
I think it also makes debugging more difficult, I'd rather stick to all UPPER or all lower Nothing better
Than wasting 2 hours going through a program to find out Oops, mean L instead
of l

Subject: Re: [U2] BASIC code - upper, lower, CamelCase, what say you?
This is really what got my thought-process flowing on this subject. I saw
this code on github after the Rocket Software "Whats New in 11.2" webinar:
https://github.com/RocketSoftware/u2-servers-lab/blob/master/UniVerse-11.2/Local/BP/LocalMain
PROGRAM LocalMain
** Let's have a quick look at local scoping
CRT "Calling the local SUBROUTINE"
CALL Main(@SENTENCE) ;* This will call Main() below, rather than
an external subroutine
CRT "Back from the local SUBROUTINE"
END
SUBROUTINE Main(Args)
CRT "Running inside the local SUBROUTINE"
CRT "Args:" :Args
FOR Counter = 1 TO 3
CALL InnerLoop(Counter)
NEXT Counter
RETURN
SUBROUTINE InnerLoop(OutsideCounter)
* Notice this won't affect Main()'s 'Counter' variable due to scoping
FOR Counter = 1 TO OutsideCounter
CRT "*":
NEXT Counter
CRT
RETURN
