### 6.4 Naming conventions

You can name things in any way you like, but we’ve used the following conventions.

- Classes start with a capital letter, words are separated with underscores, subsequent words are not capitalised (eg. Image_file)
- Private names are prefixed with underscores (and are hidden by most of the user interface)
- Functions from the VIPS library are prefixed with im_
- Global utility functions (eg. map), public members (eg. Colour.colour_space) are all lower case, words are separated with underscores, subsequent words are not capitalised
- Constants are capitalised (eg. Operator_type.COMPOUND_REWRAP)
