Question

Is there a convention for naming the private method that I have called ‘_Add‘ here? I am not a fan of the leading underscore but it is what one of my teammates suggests.

public Vector Add(Vector vector) {     // check vector for null, and compare Length to vector.Length     return _Add(vector); }  public static Vector Add(Vector vector1, Vector vector2) {     // check parameters for null, and compare Lengths     Vector returnVector = vector1.Clone()     return returnVector._Add(vector2); }  private Vector _Add(Vector vector) {     for (int index = 0; index < Length; index++) {         this[index] += vector[index];     }     return this; } 

Answer 1

I usually see and use either ‘AddCore’ or ‘InnerAdd’
