In my opinion, I still think we'd better refactor it to a more
geniric function, to avoid adding new functions when meeting
the same problem. However, if this is just a standalone problem,
maybe David's version shoule be better.

So maybe apply the David's version, and refactor it later when
meeting the same problem next time if needed.

I also agree, the name is really long.
