The most simple identifiers are those made out of ASCII letters:
|
||
|
||
Foo
|
||
Bar
|
||
Baz
|
||
|
||
However, they may also contain digits as long as they do not begin with a
|
||
digit:
|
||
|
||
Var1
|
||
Var2
|
||
Var10029384
|
||
|
||
Identifiers may be as long as you want:
|
||
|
||
ThisIsALongAndValidIdentifier
|
||
ThisIsAnEvenLongButStilCompletelyValidIdentifier
|
||
|
||
Moreover, they may have arbitrary underscores (`_`) in their names.
|
||
|
||
a_valid_identifier
|
||
another__0000__valid_identfier
|
||
_1
|
||
__2
|
||
___3
|
||
|
||
They may even be nothing more than underscores:
|
||
|
||
_
|
||
__
|
||
___
|
||
|
||
All identifiers starting with a `ID_Start` character are valid identifiers,
|
||
including `Other_ID_Start`:
|
||
|
||
℘rototype
|
||
℮llipsis
|
||
|
||
Likewise, the following code points using `Other_ID_Continue` are also valid:
|
||
|
||
α·β
|
||
ano·teleia
|
||
|
||
And, of course, the combination of `ID_Start` and `ID_Continue`:
|
||
|
||
alfa·beta
