I think the reason why is that PHP users always get picked on. (I up voted his comment)


Give me a sane way to remember when to add an underscore and when not to add an underscore after str:

http://php.net/ref.strings

I wonder why they don't deprecate the str_* functions and create "normal" str{funcname} functions, for better consistency.


str without underscore is for functions that exist in C. They appear with the same name in PHP.



And this is a reason to pick on people who use php?


I did not pick on him or anybody else, I mentioned something that bothers me.


But it's so hip to do!
