The names are used to create a map of route variables which can be retrieved calling `mux.Vars()`:
```go
vars := mux.Vars(request)
category := vars["category"]
func ArticlesCategoryHandler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
vars := mux.Vars(r)
w.WriteHeader(http.StatusOK)
fmt.Fprintf(w, "Category: %v\n", vars["category"])
}
```
