Rust and TypeScript use the return-type-at-the-end convention as well.
TypeScript doesn't need the "function" keyword for a method in an object or on a class though.
which I assume is doable because the syntax is unambiguous.
PHP's object orientation is similar to languages like Java and C#, which is what I was comparing to.
Your example didn't mention the use of the function keyword. Instead, it seemed to be questioning the placement of the return type - placing it after the argument list seems pretty common in newer languages.
Python too.
And Kotlin.
AND MY AXE!
