 Variable names can contain only letters, numbers, and

underscores.
 It can start with a letter or an underscore, but not with a number.
 Spaces are not allowed in variable names, but underscores can be
used instead.
 Avoid using Python keywords and function names as variable
names.
 Variable names should be short but descriptive.
 Be careful when using the lowercase letter l and the uppercase letter O
because they could be confused with the numbers 1 and 0.
