No Hungarian .NET
Back in the early days at Microsoft, Charles Simonyi introduced an identifier naming convention that adds a prefix to the identifier name to indicate the type of the identifier. This system became widely used inside (and outside) Microsoft and came to be known as Hungarian notation mainly because Simonyi is originally from Hungary.
