Description

I propose to rename the following classes:

  • `GModelSpectralPlaw` → `GModelSpectralPowerLaw`
  • `GModelSpectralPlaw2` → `GModelSpectralPowerLaw2`
  • `GModelSpectralExpPlaw` → `GModelSpectralExponentialCutoffPowerLaw`

The first time I saw it I didn’t know what a `Plaw` was and I think being readable is a bigger advantage than saving some characters to type.


Recurrence

No recurrence.

#1 Updated by Knödlseder Jürgen over 10 years ago

Have you see how long the class names become after renaming. I think we still should allow for some abbreviation.

#2 Updated by Deil Christoph over 10 years ago

  • Target version set to 00-08-00
My preference (most liked on top):
  • GModelSpectralPowerLaw
  • GModelSpectralPL (shorter, and PL makes it clear it’s an abbreviation)
  • GModelSpectralPlaw looks like a typo to me

Feel free to reject, or let me know if you want me to make a change.
