When it comes to naming factory functions—functions that create things— clojure.core gives four precedents:
1. Name it exactly what the new object is called. vector, hash-map, set. 2. Name it a shortened version of #1. vec. 3. Prefix #1 with "make-". make-hierarchy, make-array. 4. Prefix #1 with "create-". create-ns, create-struct. Are there any guidelines for naming a library's own factory functions? (I find #1 and #2 pretty annoying, since they interfere with my binding of symbols in let forms, but between #3 and #4 I'm not sure.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
