Rename Transformer to Converter

Open p-snft opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

When people hear "transformer", they think of electrical devices. However, the Transformer is neither meant to be (only) electrical nor bidirectional (as electrical transformers typically are). Thus, I got the suggestion to rename it to Converter. The term is more general and does not imply that back-conversion is possible.

Todo:

  • [x] Actual renaming
  • [ ] Create transitional wrapper for soft deprecation
  • [ ] Check and fix documentation
  • [ ] Explain in WhatsNew

Fix #728
