Hungarian notation is great partly because the conventions make sense
lexically - i for integer, c for char (in the variant I use), etc. and
so they're really easy to remember.
Now I have this friend from Serbia, and HE uses hungarian notation except
that all the abbreviations are (transliterated - the alphabet's different)
derived from the *Serbian* words.
Trust me, this is a remarkably effective way of obfuscating the meaning
of a piece of code...
