I agree, Foundation is a gem! The method naming is one of the assets - the names are clear, regular, and usually fairly obvious. The downside to that regularity and clarity is that the names are long.
One CoreFoundation example at random:
CFURLRef CFURLCreateCopyDeletingLastPathComponent(CFAllocatorRef allocator, CFURLRef ref);
I think nearly everyone who reads that prototype will immediately understand what it does, but there's no denying it's a mouthful.Tack on some unfamilar square-brackets and intersperse argument names, and it's understandable that people will conflate the syntax with the APIs.
