56533eb9ac21ba0edf2244ab	Understanding Case Sensitivity in Variables	1

Description

In JavaScript all variables and function names are case sensitive. This means that capitalization matters. MYVAR is not the same as MyVar nor myvar. It is possible to have multiple distinct variables with the same name but different casing. It is strongly recommended that for the sake of clarity, you do not use this language feature.

Best Practice

Write variable names in JavaScript in camelCase. In camelCase, multi-word variable names have the first word in lowercase and the first letter of each subsequent word is capitalized. Examples:

var someVariable;
var anotherVariableName;
var thisVariableNameIsSoLong;

Instructions

Modify the existing declarations and assignments so their names use camelCase.
Do not create any new variables.

Tests

tests:
  - text: <code>studlyCapVar</code> is defined and has a value of <code>10</code>
    testString: assert(typeof studlyCapVar !== 'undefined' && studlyCapVar === 10, '<code>studlyCapVar</code> is defined and has a value of <code>10</code>');
  - text: <code>properCamelCase</code> is defined and has a value of <code>"A String"</code>
    testString: assert(typeof properCamelCase !== 'undefined' && properCamelCase === "A String", '<code>properCamelCase</code> is defined and has a value of <code>"A String"</code>');
  - text: <code>titleCaseOver</code> is defined and has a value of <code>9000</code>
    testString: assert(typeof titleCaseOver !== 'undefined' && titleCaseOver === 9000, '<code>titleCaseOver</code> is defined and has a value of <code>9000</code>');
  - text: <code>studlyCapVar</code> should use camelCase in both declaration and assignment sections.
    testString: assert(code.match(/studlyCapVar/g).length === 2, '<code>studlyCapVar</code> should use camelCase in both declaration and assignment sections.');
  - text: <code>properCamelCase</code> should use camelCase in both declaration and assignment sections.
    testString: assert(code.match(/properCamelCase/g).length === 2, '<code>properCamelCase</code> should use camelCase in both declaration and assignment sections.');
  - text: <code>titleCaseOver</code> should use camelCase in both declaration and assignment sections.
    testString: assert(code.match(/titleCaseOver/g).length === 2, '<code>titleCaseOver</code> should use camelCase in both declaration and assignment sections.');

Challenge Seed

// Declarations
var StUdLyCapVaR;
var properCamelCase;
var TitleCaseOver;

// Assignments
STUDLYCAPVAR = 10;
PRoperCAmelCAse = "A String";
tITLEcASEoVER = 9000;

Solution

var studlyCapVar;
var properCamelCase;
var titleCaseOver;

studlyCapVar = 10;
properCamelCase = "A String";
titleCaseOver = 9000;
