Is this correct? From the article, Apps Hungarian represents your intent for the var (the kind), not the type. Systems Hungarian represents the type (duplicative).
- dmitshur 7y agoHe meant that the intent (kind) can be factored into the type system too. Instead of using type string for both “unsafe string” kind and “safe string” kind, you’d use two different types. So the type system aka compiler can catch a mistake, in addition to your eyes. For example, see https://talks.golang.org/2012/goforc.slide#43 https://talks.golang.org/2012/goforc.slide#43.
- devicetray0 7y agoOh I see. Thank you!
