Changed Function Names for Codistributed Arrays
What was known in previous releases as distributed arrays are henceforth called
codistributed arrays. Some functions related to constructing and accessing codistributed
arrays have changed names in this release.

The following table summarizes the changes in function names relating to codistributed
