Default condensors and capacitors

exactly what is a condensor?
i was looking at some circuit diagrams and its saying things like this:
condensators:
C3 1500pF
C4 4700pF
C5 0,01uF
C6 0,1uF

now F is for capacitors, so whats the difference here between
the two, or is a condensor just another name for a capacitor?
thanks
