Question

I have a class with two related functions (methods):

public class class1
{
    public void SubscribeToListOfEvents()
    {
        // ....
    }

    public void UnSubscribeFromListOfEvents()
    {
        // ....
    }
}

What’s the best practice to use related functions in one class ?

Do you know of any implementations of related functions as one function ? Are they good ? In what situations are they good ? If so, can hyou give me an example?

Any available options of code above will be appreciated.

Answer 1

If the functions belong to the class, logically, then they are fine that way.

A class should be cohesive and methods that do an operation normally should have the mirror operation defined as well (Subscribe/Unsubscribe, Add/Remove etc…).

You have named them well, as they are very descriptive of what they do – how would you name a merged one? It is better to leave them separate, as this way they are self documenting and will not confuse users of the class.
