I disagree with using getter functions or properties there. Properties are a nice way of changing/extending "variable" behaviour but if the behaviour is that of a normal variable, there is no need for that. I'm mainly commenting to see if you have an argument against my current opinion (also I'm not working for or am I in any way associated with Imgur) :) |
