I'd go with 'key_count' for the latter, but otherwise I agree with the analysis.
"count_key" sounds more natural to me, FWIW.
I'd say it isn't a matter of whether it sounds "natural" but that this is an algorithm and should be described by a verb or verbal phrase.
That's a little less clear in a pure functional system. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
