8,188 PointsHello,
She passed FIELDNAMES in caps because these are constants. Kenneth Love talked about this in his python course.
By having these constants, she did not have to have a whole string of field names in her numpy.genfromtxt command

8,188 PointsKenneth only talked about why it is in CAPS. That is in Python Basics.
As for what those Fieldnames are, they are actually the headers for the data.
Let me know if you have any other questions
