Use clear, descriptive names that follow consistent patterns established in the codebase and broader programming standards. This includes: 1. Choose unambiguous function names that clearly communicate purpose and behavior:
Use clear, descriptive names that follow consistent patterns established in the codebase and broader programming standards. This includes:
// Better: Clearer indication of behavior void writeTo(OutputArray m) const;
2. Avoid unnecessary abbreviations when clarity would be improved:
```cpp
// Poor: Ambiguous abbreviation
CV_WRAP void computeCCM();
// Better: Clear meaning
CV_WRAP Mat computeColorCorrectionMatrix();
// Better: Consistent all-caps for constants enum ColorCheckerType { COLORCHECKER_MACBETH, COLORCHECKER_VINYL };
4. Follow established naming patterns for related classes or components:
```cpp
// Poor: Inconsistent with existing naming patterns
enum DisposalMethod {
GRFMT_GIF_Nothing = 0,
GRFMT_GIF_PreviousImage = 1
};
// Better: Consistent naming pattern
enum GifDisposeMethod {
GIF_DISPOSE_NONE = 1,
GIF_DISPOSE_RESTORE_PREVIOUS = 3
};
// Better: Clear indication this is a setter int setPaletteSize(int size); ```
This approach leads to more maintainable, readable, and self-documenting code while preserving consistency across the codebase.
