reason maybe mathematical: Using case sensitive means that 'If' and 'if'
and 'IF' and 'iF' are all different and thus four separate 'words.' If there is
no case sensitivity, then there is only one 'word' regardless of the combination
of the letters. IMHO it comes from the days when computer resources were limited
and machine 'word' were limited in size; e .g. using case sensitive language
allowed more two letter 'words/commands.' </FONT></SPAN></DIV>
