Retrieval Functions

The prefix determines what is being returned.

• `get*() -> T` or `get*() -> Result<T>`
• Return a non-`Option` object, usually wrapped in a `Result<T>`
• Example: `get_by_names()`
• `find*() -> Option<T>` or `find*() -> Result<Option<T>>`
• Returns a single optional object
• `search*() -> Vec<T>` or `search*() -> Result<Vec<T>>`
• Returns a list of objects
• `map*_by_*() -> HashMap<TKey, TValue>` or `map*_by_*() -> Result<HashMap>`
• Returns a mapping of some sort

In many cases, there is a `_by_` which indicates how the item is found.
