Naming ambiguity in trackers
gerritwellecke opened this issue · comments
The trackers make are called with periodicity as defined by the argument intervals. However the class that implements these times between tracker calls are called interrupts.
Both can be understood to mean what they're supposed to but I dislike the ambiguity in naming.
If I got it, then this is supposed to set the time between tracker calls.
- If this is regular, then "interval" makes perfect sense.
- Since this is when the simulation is interrupted, "interrupts" makes perfect sense.
Not sure I have the solution, but after talking to @david-zwicker, we decided to make a decision at some point, therefore I open this issue.
