    The abbreviations are getting out of hand

    It did get better from "public static void main() {}"

    To "pub fn main() {}" Or "pub fn foo() i32 {}"

    VB :
    Scope Function MyFunction () As Datatype
    End Function

    JS inside a class
    myfunc() {}

    Assembly:

    :function_name
    ret

    Then we got python

    def myFunc:

    Note how the term "function" is not used here at all xP

    fn pig(){

    Also JS:
    () => {}

    Even cleaner if you have one argument and the function only consists of a return statement:

    x => x * 2

    public static void main()
    1 2 3 4

    1- Access permission/visibility

    2- Static means not being tied to an object instantiation, its a class method rather than an object method.

    3- Return type

    4- method name

    Not a single wasted "function/fun/fn/def" or whatever ....

    Ha! Declaring a function as 'fun' is a great idea!

    @IllSlapU Mismatched and clashing colors, patterns, and fabrics is a "style," too, I suppose. Both evoke eye-bleeding, and for the same reasons.

    @azous I don't do OOP regularly now a days, and the languages I use have a unique way of implementing it.
    I was giving my example for Go and Rust as they have a new syntax style and I've used these languages.

    So 'static' might not be used, but Go syntax allows to join function to structs as methodes
    Eg: func (a *aStruct) method() {}
    Or Rust:
    impl a_struct A{
    pub fn method() {}
    }
    And as there is no proper concept of class no need to specify static, just add them to the package/module and they are 'static' as per OOP definition.

    The 'pub' in Rust is the same as access and everything else is private by default
    Go does it by syntax, functions starting with caps are public all other private

    The name is present in all cases

    The return type is written after the function name and no need to specify 'void' type
    Go: func getInt() int {}
    Rust: fn getInt() i32 {}

    @Pogromist depends on the assembler.
    I've used some whose labels were prefixed with a bang.
