Which is the more accepted way to compose method names nounVerb or
verbNoun?
For example voltageGet or getVoltage? getVoltage sounds more normal,
but voltageGet is more like voltage.Get. I seem to mix them and I
should probably pick one way and stick with it.
Thanks
For me personally I do the following:
spam_get/spam_set; might be preferred if you have more spam_* functions
(i.e. spam_del, spam_eat, etc.)
set_spam/get_spam; is I think reasonable if you have also a *_ham
function (i.e. set_ham, get_ham).
Funny thing for me is that when I have both spam_* & *_ham naming, I
usually rethink my approach and split it out to separate classes/modules.
Please note that this is at the moment a personal, uneducated, never
really thought about it, preference. Meaning it is very likely that with
some more insight there is a good chance that I find my approach in
retrospect flawed.
