Capitalisation

Why is it capitalised? Shouldn't it be "uniform function call syntax" (in the title, "Uniform function call syntax")?

C# Extension methods

Isn't this the same as Extension Methods in C#? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:810A:EC0:24F4:AEFD:CEFF:FE3D:9E83 (talk) 08:13, 16 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not really. Extension Methods work very differently, and can only be attached to specific types, and can only be called in method way. UFCS can be polymorphic and templated, can be overloaded, and shadowed, and can be called as a function, method or property-like.

It is very similar, but not quite there, and also implemented rather differently. ~2025-33515-70 (talk) 02:46, 16 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
