Hi David, >>getAddress(socialNo) >>getAddress(name, surname) >>getAddress(login) >> ... >These are clearly three different functions with three different >semantics. Clearly? From my point of view the three operations mentioned above differ only by their signature not their semantics. The semantics itself is IMHO expressed by the name of the operation. A getAddress operation remains pretty the same from the user's perspective even if some parameters differ. I would really plead not to illegally synonymize the notion of signature found in some, not all, programming languages with the notion of semantics in general. just my 2 cents ... Mario
