3.<strong>Avoid underscores:</strong> adds unnecessary length. Reserve it for prefixes of special cases (see class members and lambda functions). Use upper case letters instead.

4.<strong>Using and typedef keywords:</strong> Prefer the keyword <strong>using</strong> over <strong>typedef</strong> for readability. Only rename very long complex or custom types, do not rename standard types (int, double, std::vector). Prefer including ADIOSTypes.h as it contains fixed types in the std:: namespace uint8_t, uint64_t .
