Let us look at Nimrod's lexical elements in more detail: like other
programming languages Nimrod consists of (string) literals, identifiers,
keywords, comments, operators, and other punctuation marks. Case is
*insignificant* in Nimrod and even underscores are ignored:
``This_is_an_identifier`` and ``ThisIsAnIdentifier`` are the same identifier.
This feature enables you to use other
people's code without bothering about a naming convention that conflicts with
yours. A Nimrod-aware editor or IDE can show the identifiers as
preferred. It also frees you from remembering the exact spelling of an
identifier (was it ``parseURL`` or ``parseUrl`` or ``parse_URL``?).
