Change table.cstack to table.dstack before 4.0? #9565

Closed

Description

@taldcroft

Table.cstack() is short for depth-wise stacking, by analogy to vstack and hstack. I don't quite remember why it got named cstack instead of dstack. I think that table.cstack is conceptually similar to np.dstack : "Stack arrays in sequence depth wise (along third axis)."

Before the 4.0 release can we just change this?
