What's in a class/method name?
.NET framework 2.0 introduced a new feature called Anonymous methods via the delegate keyword. Some more details on this can be found in this MSDN Magazine article.
Working with anonymous methods can be a bit confusing and also make the code a bit difficult to read. Recently a colleague of mine, Vinay, however showed another interesting class and method naming convention.
public class _
{
public _()
{
}
public void __(string _, string __)
{
}
}
The above is perfectly legal C# code and will compile and build successfully. You can call the method in this class as
_ _ = new _();
_.__("_", "_");
So much for the class and method naming and cryptic code! Do note however that this code snippet will be a bit more readable with the VS2005 editor and its color coding.
