Does Processing have default values for certain alphabets?

Namaste All,

So I wrote the following code :

void setup(){
}


void draw(){
println(X);
}

This gives me a value of 0.
If I do the same thing with Y it gives a value of 1, with Z a value of 2. Doesn’t work with all the alphabets(I only tried these 3).and this only happens with capital letters. Why is it so??

Thanks.

Didn’t realize these are constants… they are listed in the reference (camera() function, if I remember well), but being one-letter constants, risk of inadvertently overloading them is high
