How does the Zend Framework handle naming conventions for controllers and views, and what are the implications for file structure?

The Zend Framework follows a strict naming convention for controllers and views. Controllers should be named in the format ModuleName\Controller\ControllerNameController, while views should be named in the format module-name/controller-name/action-name.phtml. Adhering to these naming conventions ensures that the framework can locate the correct files and render the views properly. 

// Example of a controller class following naming convention
class Blog\Controller\PostController extends Zend\Mvc\Controller\AbstractActionController
{
    // Controller actions here
}

// Example of a view file following naming convention
// module/Blog/view/blog/post/index.phtml
