I would like to add that while I started out being enthisiastic about 
camelcase I have switched to using wide names for variable and attributes.

So my code mostly looks like

class ThisIsAClass

     thisIsAMethod()

         this_is_a_variable

         self.and_a_paramater

But lately I have noticed that i am switching to wide names for methods too.

This has not been a concious choice, just the way I have come to like 
it. So I guess that my favourite is wide names.
