Posted: Sat Jun 17, 2006 9:11 pm Post subject: Naming consistency re isnormal() |
|
|
Since isnormal() appears for so many of the classes, I suppose there's some justification for it not following the camelCaseConvention used elsewhere in Helix, but I haven't found an explanation anywhere.
Is it simply an effort to be consistent with Phobos (and if so, is there a reason for Phobos math functions to be named in this manner?) or is there some other reason?
Thanks!

Yep, that is because corresponding Phobos' functions are named looks like that. This made for some disambiguate terms 'normal' in sense of IEEE's normal number and in sense of perpendicular to tangent. _________________ Victor Nakoryakov
