Explanation

Using 'pinaagi' (from 'paagi' with the 'pi-' prefix indicating instrumentality) better captures the idea of a method *acting upon* something, aligning more closely with the programming concept. It's also less prone to collision than 'pamaagi'.

Issue breakdown

specificity While 'pamaagi' means 'method/approach', it's too general. In programming, 'method' is specifically tied to an object.
