Voxera108834yI would fail that in code review, if for no other reason in case you ever get a boss that would have issues with it. - 
				
				
sariel78954yIt's pronounced, cūm, and it's fucking classy.
Just be glad they aren't being totally stupid and naming a var with the first letter of every word that represents it.
Something like, camthgqyp. -

asgs109214yI was about to declare a variable assValue a few weeks ago but then it immediately struck. Ended up choosing associatedVal - 
				
				@Voxera ah don't worry, my boss always says he's too dumb to understand code.
He's not, he even has a PhD in computer science, he just stays out of development mostly.
@electrineer god damn it mathworks -

hjk10155954y@LotsOfCaffeine don't see why. Not everyone that speaks English even knows about cum. Avg, prod, sum and cum are often used in aggregations.
Don't forget the Latin honours:
Cum Laude (once saw that misspelled as "cum loude". Context is everything. -
