Another example is the pthread library which uses a naming convention
that describes the context it's operating on. For example,
pthread_mutex_lock, pthread_cond_wait etc. I've used this kind of naming
convention myself but I only write Metal/C these days and C++ when using
LE.
FWIW, the term method is used to describe a virtual function. The reason
Java refers to member functions as methods is because by default all
functions are virtual unless you declare them final. It's the other way
round in C++.

IBM System SSL, a crypto library on z/OS.
Every call operates on one particular kind of data structure: an = "environment," a
