Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. After some consideration, I've decided our global functions should follow the lower_case naming convention as well.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • Update the .clang-tidy file to enfore lower_case naming style for global / static functions.
  • Run a clang-debug build (x64-linux-clang-debug), (arm64-osx-clang-debug), etc... and verify it compiles and clang-tidy job passes.

Describe alternatives you've considered I considered keeping the global functions CamelCase but I want to adhere to CppCoreGuidelines as much as possible. CamelCase will be reserved for types.

Additional context

Contributor guide

Research direction
Update the .clang tidy file to enforce lower case naming for global functions. Then build using the specified clang debug configurations and confirm that clang tidy passes.
