> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Daniel Darabos
> Priority: Minor
>
> Throughout the documentation and code "slice" and "partition" are used
> interchangeably. (Or so it seems to me.) It would avoid some confusion for
> new users to settle on one name. I think "partition" is winning, since that
> is the name of the class representing the concept.
> This should not be much more complicated to do than a search & replace. I can
> take a stab at it, if you agree.
