By “the big three”, are you referring to only the naming of map, filter, and reduce?
I would also like to see a formal proposal along these lines, and possibly more. I also feel that the `inPlace` suffix was very clear (most important) and very much liked that it made the immutable version the default (less important). It manages to describe the distinction between `union`/`unionInPlace` and `sort`/`sortInPlace` in the name itself. To me, the `ed`/`ing` difference is much more subtle and favors people who are familiar with English grammar. One can argue that `sort` is both imperative and functional, and that because of [either side] the default should be [mutable/immutable]. Both arguments are valid. - David > On 15 Apr 2016, at 18:31, Erica Sadun via swift-evolution > <swift-evolution@swift.org> wrote: > >> >> On Apr 15, 2016, at 10:17 AM, Антон Жилин via swift-evolution >> <swift-evolution@swift.org <mailto:swift-evolution@swift.org>> wrote: >> >> I've already expressed these concerns, but nobody noticed, apparently.
