Why is C# Case Sensitive? [closed]

C# is case sensistive because it takes after the C style languages which are all case sensitive. This is from memory here’s an MSDN link which is not working for me right now I can’t verify.

I would also like to point out that this is a very valid use case:

public class Child
{
   private Person parent;
   public Person Parent
   {
      get { return parent;}
   }
}

Yes you can get around this using prefixes on your member variables but some people don’t like to do that.
