About Node Names

You give each node a unique name distinguishing it from other nodes in your application. These names must begin with a letter (A-Z or a-z), an underscore (_), or a dollar sign ($). The remaining characters in the name can also include numbers. Here are some examples of legal names:

x
Root
User_Name
Ins23
_name

Node names can also include spaces as in the following examples:

User Name
Return on Equity
variable 1

The ability to use spaces in names is a feature unique to DScript and can be quite useful in creating self-documenting code.

A node name can be up to 64 characters long.

The rules for naming variables and object properties are identical to those for naming nodes.
