What does “f” stand for in C standard library function names?
Your question in general is too general but I can explain a few examples. fgets, fopen, fclose, … — The ”f“ stands for “file”. These functions accept or return a FILE * pointer as opposed to a file number as the POSIX functions do. printf, scanf, … — The ”f“...
How do I name a function that takes an object `A` and a set `{A, B}` as arguments, then returns `B`? [closed]
python,function,naming-conventions,naming
I would use a different function name, different argument names and a docstring to make it clear what's going on, something like: def get_other(current, both): """Return the element from 'both' that is not 'current'.""" ... Note that both implies a pair without anything long-winded, and doesn't specify the type required....

Same name for function and method, cannot call the former within the latter
It's your call of the u function that is problematic. You forgot the new keyword, which made the this context be the global scope object - on which you then are overwriting the global post variable. Two fixes: Use (new u("form")).post(…); or make your constructor new-agnostic Don't put the post...

Why are the aliases for string and object in lowercase?
c#,alias,naming,primitive-types,complextype
In C#, there are no "primitive types" and "complex types". There are classes and structs, (reference types and value types, respectively) among others. Both can include methods (e.g. char.IsDigit('a')). So your objections aren't really valid. But there is still the question: why? I'm not sure if there's a good source...
Looping through a list in Python and creating new objects based on items

Naming personal email address with own domain
The biggest downside of using conventions for emails ([email protected] [email protected] [email protected] and others) is that it's more likely you'll receive spam. I suggest thinking out of the box here and coming up with something you like [email protected]_name.com As a side note, you probably have a very unique first name if...

The question of how to name variables has existed for time immemorial. One approach (both loved and loathed) at least attempts to deal with systematically. "Hungarian Notation", http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_notation. In Hungarian, a variable that contains a count of something begins with "c", so in that approach you would name it cProcess....
How to name method [closed]
Is it usual behaviour to return null for function? If it's not an exceptional condition, yes, it's entirely normal. Consider DOM's getElementById, for instance, which returns null if there is no matching element, which isn't exceptional and therefore doesn't warrant an exception. Or JavaScript's own String#match, which returns null...

Naming: time you have to wait before something is valid
I don't believe there is a standard computing term for "the time you have to wait before something is valid", but a common computing term used for waiting is (obviously!) "wait" or "delay". In my opinion "CLICK_GESTATION_HOURS" is not a good choice of variable name as it is very ambiguous...
