(this topic is for fun)

I was reading the Python's PEP‑8, which I have not read so far, when just  
saw this:

    http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/

    > The following naming styles are commonly distinguished:
    > […]
    > Capitalized_Words_With_Underscores (ugly!)

With an exclamation mark, above all.


Just to get back to a more interesting topic, I also had another though  
while reading this PEP: this may help if there was such a precise layout  
convention for Ada as the one there is for Python. But may be the one of  
AdaCore is more widespread than I believe (we already discussed this a bit  
with in old topic about the *_Type convention).
