check variable names

[LucaPaterlini]

an option like
"-hard"
It will mark as mistake "else" and will mark as mistake all the 1 character variable aside those declared inside a for or if statement.

Can you name linters that would do this?

[LucaPaterlini]

actually, there is none that I know, but I suppose a script that apply a regex looking for those is something possible to implement

Isn't this really a more general question about automated code analyzers for all Exercism languages?

[LucaPaterlini]

would be really nice if get implemented for all the languages supported by Exercism :)

We will probably do something at some point about checking variable names. There are some naming guidelines that are enforced by linters and I would probably start with that.

Note that we are having discussions on this in the auto-mentor project: https://github.com/exercism/automated-mentoring-support/blob/master/docs/guidelines.md#approvability
