random poll, what do you name your unused but necessary variables? i guess in kotlin the only situation would be in destructuring, but in java it also comes up in single input lambdas where you dont care about the input.

in python i would do `_` but does java/kotlin have similar convention?

In Kotlin you can use `_` (and in fact the IDE will suggest you do that).  In Java I usually use whatever I would normally call the variable.  `_` seems to be some kind of a reserved identifier in Java, or at least using it produces a warning about it not being supported in future versions.

Kotlin even reserves `_` for unused parameters, you can't use it as just any variable name.

too bad i need to solve this in Java :face_with_open_mouth_vomiting:

I often just go with a single character I was gonna use anyway, like `e` or `x` or something. Iirc they reserved _ to in the future perhaps use for unused variables
