Appian Exam ACD101 Topic 2 Question 19 Discussion

Actual exam question for Appian's ACD101 exam
Question #: 19
Topic #: 2
[All ACD101 Questions]

You are using a local variable in an expression rule to describe the height of an applicant.

Which statement correctly describes the application of Appian best practices for naming your local variable?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The best practice for naming variables in Appian is to use clear and descriptive names that convey the purpose or content of the variable. Therefore, local!applicantHeight is the best option as it precisely describes the value contained by the variable, which is the height of an applicant. This naming convention aids in readability and maintainability of the code, making it easier for developers to understand and modify the code in the future.

I think option C is also a valid choice, as it follows a common naming convention for variables.

But using abbreviations can make the code less readable for other developers.

Appian devs who use 'local!x' must also prefer their variable names to be as mysterious as their codebase. Just sayin'.

I'm with Dallas on this one. 'local!x' is the coding equivalent of shrugging your shoulders. Let's be better than that.

A) local!hoaa - This employs the naming convention of abbreviating 'Height of an applicant' to minimize both the typing required by developers and the length of code Appian is required to parse.

Using 'local!x' just feels lazy. Might as well call it 'local!whatevs' while we're at it.

Definitely 'local!applicantHeight'. Keeping variable names explicit and meaningful is a no-brainer for Appian best practices.

'local!x' might be confusing for future developers, 'local!applicantHeight' is much clearer.
