Appending 1 to functions is quite common in Erlang for cases such as that. You cant find a good naming scheme for small fragments of ideas.

- rdtsc 11y agoI don't know, I find I do it with variables more than functions. With functions I seprate them by arity, so there could be a foo/0 and foo/1 maybe. But usually I haven't seen much fun1 fun2 fun3 ... pattern. And if you don't see a way, don't split it. I mean, make your code look good and easy to understand for yourself and others, that's the point.
- masklinn 11y agoAppending 1 to functions might be used for utility/internal functions with a slightly different (and less convenient) signature than the base[0], usually because the original signature does not allow for tail-recursion. That's not the case here.
