Question:
I’ve noticed that some parts of DataCamp exercises are written in title case, while other parts are written in sentence case. It seems to differ from course to course though, is there a set guideline on when something should be sentence case and when it should be title case?
Answer:
Guidelines: We use title case for course titles and chapter titles (capitalize the first letter of all words except “stop words,” such as articles and prepositions) and sentence case (just capitalizing the first word of a sentence) for video and exercise names as well as slide titles.
There is a set guideline, and we are working on implementing those rules in older
courses (be patient!).
Title case:
Course title
Chapter titles
Sentence case:
Exercise names (including videos)
Slide titles
Examples:
Course title: Categorical Data in the Tidyverse
Chapter title: Introduction to Factor Variables
Exercise title: Introduction to qualitative variables
Slide title: Qualitative variables in R
