Prefix all declared function parameter list identifiers with `a`

Wait, we're now using hungarian notation?

[Martii]

Not familiar with that term but this will clear up coding issues especially in between object names and identifiers. Stands for argument btw... similar to our r requirement for regular expressions.

This is a perfect example right where I'm at too:

strat: aStrat.name,

vs. what we have been doing of:

strat: strat.name,

The latter can confuse anything.

We're only prefixing function parameter names. Nothing else.

Correct.

Oh, it's a strategy not array strategy. Hungarian notation prefixes the data type. Where a represents array.

In javascript, { key: value } key isn't executed. You have to use obj[keyName] to get/set using a variable. You could be more explicit about it by wrapping the key in quotes though. 'strat': strat.name

The main reason is for human readability... e.g. not having to figure out if it's a parm or an intermediate.

That's probably something that could go into the STYLEGUIDE.md for sure.

If the key name is the same as a variable in the current scope or always?

This issue... has the sounds of the need to use an editor that you can set the color of parameters differently.
