[Numpy-discussion] Proposal for changing the names of inverse trigonometrical/hyperbolic functions

[Matthew Brett]

Hi,

I think this change could be confusing.

numpy.asum numpy.arange numpy.amax etc all have the intended meaning
of 'a-for-array-version-of-function'.   This obviously isn't the case
for 'acos'.  Explaining the difference could be painful.

Best,

Matthew
