Naming Scalar Variables


   



The name you use for a scalar variable can contain letters, numbers, and underscores. 

Such a name must start with the $ symbol. 

A variable's name can be at least 255 characters long.

Scalar variable names are case sensitive-$variable1 is not the same as $Variable1.
