The ambiguity between “Map” (data-structure) and “map” (higher order function) (twitter.com) 4 points by tosh 5y ago ↗ HN
[–] magnostherobot 5y ago ↗ I think of them as noun and verb: a Map is a mapping from thing to another thing; map the function maps several things to other things.IMO, neither are quite named right: surely Map should be Mapping, and map should be mapSeveral?
