What is the difference between eth.contract and eth.Contract?

Question

I don't get it. I've seeing two ways from tutorials on how to instantiate web3.

One is..

eth = new Eth(web3.currentProvider)
token = eth.contract(abi).at(contract_address);

and another is..

web3 = new Web3(web3.currentProvider);
token = new web3.eth.Contract(abi, contractAddress);

How are they different? And I can't find info on https://web3js.readthedocs.io/en/1.0/web3-eth-contract.html with the small "c" for contract.

Answer 1

I think I know why. Small "c" is for web3 version below 1.0. Lowercase "c" and no "new". While big "C" is for version 1.0++.

Gosh, why they make like difficult for coders.
