Relation To Sigils
In some programming languages, a similar notation now called sigils is built into the language and enforced by the compiler. For example, in BASIC, name$
names a string and count%
names an integer. The major difference between Hungarian notation and sigils is that sigils declare the type of the variable to the compiler, while Hungarian notation is purely a naming scheme.

Famous quotes containing the words relation to and/or relation:
“In relation to God, we are like a thief who has burgled the house of a kindly householder and been allowed to keep some of the gold. From the point of view of the lawful owner this gold is a gift; From the point of view of the burglar it is a theft. He must go and give it back. It is the same with our existence. We have stolen a little of Gods being to make it ours. God has made us a gift of it. But we have stolen it. We must return it.”
—Simone Weil (19091943)
“Whoever has a keen eye for profits, is blind in relation to his craft.”
