    Why would I be kididng [sic]? You asked whether variables names that begin with a number are valid. I suggested that you tried it and observed what happened. You tried it and found that it didn't work. By following an empirical approach, you have answered your own question.

        Enum members are not variables, and even those identifier cannot start with a number. Had you tried it yourself, you would have found out quite easily. But, in either case, you still lose...

          My sympathys are with your teacher. You don't listen to him, and you still haven't learned your lesson.

                  You could always... cheat. Fonts, all they are a little pictures really. What is it, courier new that compilers mostly use? Anyway, see if you can get yourself that font, edit out some symbol that is allowed, and make it a number. To the user, the first letter in the variable name is a number, but to the compiler its just a symbol, or another letter. Oh, by the way, cheating is bad. Don't do it ;)

                  My current favourite word is: Waffle Cheese is still good though.

                      You lose. Not even with the @ identifier specifier does it work: int @int = 1; // Works just fine. int @1name = 1; // Nope. An identifier in C# can never ever start with a digit.

                      Bonus question: can identifier start with digit in IL? (I gave up after maybe 2 min. of googling :O)

                        You really need to listen. If he's your teacher, he's better than you. Usually, but now, duh. Period.

                        The most knowledge doesn't mean the most wise...
