Can anybody give me a definition of these two RDBMS field naming conventions?

It has been a while, but isn't PascalCase actually camel case?... or I've completely missed the pun or something  ;D

No pun, a genuine question arising out of my Yr 12 IT class.

All about how one names fields in databases.

Just did a quick wiki and from what I can tell the way you apply capitals, spaces, or hyphens is entirely subjective. Besides the chemistry examples I guess. I only ever dabbled in Visual Basic and a bit of Java at school so I'm unsure how it would apply to your case (lololol), but it does provide a reference or two to Python at least  :cheers
