Question

What is the standard naming convention for the variables in R

Answer 1

Use of period separator

e.g. product.prices <- c(12.01, 10.12)

Use of underscores

e.g. product_prices <- c(12.01, 10.12)

Use of mixed capitalization (camelCase)

e.g. productPrices <- c(12.01, 10.12)

However, the third way is mostly and widely used and avoids any errors or confusion.
