Can you show us your full variable declarations?
Some people prefix their vars or constants with a letter. So g could mean global, k could mean constant, f is sometimes used for flags i.e. bool.

It looks like a version of Hungarian Notation:

Also some people put "no" in front of variable names to indicate it is a running count of something.
Like noDogs means "number of dogs".
But people who don't know this will get confused thinking "no dogs" and just be like "what?! is it a boolean?!?!".

If I were to use a prefix to indicate a running count of dogs it would be something like numDogs, to make it self-documenting. I agree noDogs would be confusing.
