Single letter variable names are valid only in two cases:
-loops (for i = 0; ...)
-scientific variables, in which case they should probably be constants anyway (c = speed of light in a vacuum)
- bpicolo 10y agoOne of my biggest digs with typical mathematical/scientific notation is that reading equations where there are a number of things that are variables and other things that are constants with all one letter isn't great. I WISH we had used SPEED_OF_LIGHT in math class.
