Mon 23 Jan 2017 01:41:07 PM UTC, comment #4: Thanks, this is also an interesting suggestion. I am just thinking how "transform" can be confused with "warping" as described in that same paragraph. But there is still some time left to the 0.3 release so we won't need to make any decisions now. If anything else comes to your mind, please share it here ;-)...

Sat 21 Jan 2017 05:32:44 PM UTC, original submission:
Initially the Arithmetic program (and now the `gal_arithmetic_*' library functions) had a very limited number of operators (the arithmetic operators of `+', `-', `*', and `/', and a few other useful ones. So the name "Arithmetic" was meaningful. But now, it has many operators (all the operators in C, including bitwise operators, many math functions and also type converters).

There were too many important things to manage, check, and fix before the 0.3 release. So let's leave this issue open and hopefully do it by the next release.
