    IT World[^]:

    Coding mnemonics, which help software developers remember everything from variable names to language syntax, can take many - sometimes odd - forms.

    Why is there no mnemonic to help me how to spell that word?

    After you figure out the mnemonic for "mnemonic", could you work on one for "diarrhea"?

                To remember metric prefixes I use the mnemonic: "Peta, Tera, Giga, Mega, Kilo, Hecto, Deka, Deci, Centi, Milli, Micro, Nano, Pico, Femto" :rolleyes:

                Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

                    What helps me remember is the fact I use long, highly descriptive, names for Fields, Properties, Methods, Classes, etc. Being a speed typist helps :) cheers, Bill

                      Not that hard, but my fingers keep wanting to put a 'u' in there. Just gassy, I guess.
