I believe that Ada allows case insensitive identifiers in order to prevent programmers from using the same names for different variables/procedures. Once I saw some C code like this:
int x, X;
X = 0;
for(int i=0; i < N; i++) {
/* long code to calculate the value of x */
...
X += x;
}
Personally, I appreciate that there are languages which prevent this, like Ada and Pascal.
