The case against Hungarian notation in JavaScript | NCZOnline
For years, I’ve used Hungarian Notation when programming in JavaScript. Both of my books use Hungarian notation for all code examples and recommend that others do the same. Now, I’ve been aware of the arguments against using Hungarian notation for a while as well, but most just said, “don’t use it” without offering much in the way of an alternative. For a while, I feverishly pushed forth Hungarian notation as the most appropriate way to write JavaScript code. Recently, however, I’ve had a change of heart.
