Gabriel Arazas aea7015cd5 Update the files for convention
Apparently, the convention (at least starting from 2018) is to make the
keywords and block names to be in lowercase as stated from one of the
following discussions at
https://orgmode.org/list/87tuuw3n15.fsf@nicolasgoaziou.fr/.

The files was updated with a one liner of shell. However, this is Emacs
and org-mode does have an API to let you do stuff in your config and
interact with the documents internally so it is not an elegant solution
in any way.

Writing clean code

Code should be readable, simple, and concise. There are a few things to consider when writing code.

  • When naming stuff like variables and functions, be clear and concise. Furthermore, if applicable, imply its type. For example, when the variable holds an array, you can append _list to its name (e.g., grade_list vs grades). If it's a boolean, you can prepend the name with is_ or has_.
  • Use whitespace properly and consistently. For example, in Python, spaces are preferred to tabs and a "tab" is made up of 4 spaces following PEP 8 standard which is a style guide for Python.

This could be inapplicable if you're worrying about how to create the code that works so be sure to apply it when refactoring.
