 Hi there,

 I am doing some online tutorials and have found two approaches to
 naming things: this_is_a_name and thisIsAName.

Read PEP 8, specifically the section on Naming Conventions:

Which one is the best practice for Python? I am a totally newbie to

The official word is pep 8 -- http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/
