Just started to learn swift and noticed that protocol UICollectionViewDelegate (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uicollectionviewdelegate) has around 20 functions with the same name but different parameters. In C# we use overloads as well but we use them in case we want to do something similar like:
- GetUser(int id)
- GetUser(string userName)
but in swift we use the same func name for functions that do absolutely different things like:
- func collectionView(UICollectionView, didSelectItemAt: IndexPath)
- func collectionView(UICollectionView, targetContentOffsetForProposedContentOffset: CGPoint)
So the question is, why they don't use funcs like:
- func didSelect(UICollectionView, ItemAt: IndexPath)
- func targetContentOffsetForProposedContentOffset(UICollectionView, offset: CGPoint)
in this case func name actually tells us what it's going to do and it's easier to find function you need
If there is some documentation why such a decisions were made I would really appreciate it.
Thank you
