> The {{TableEnvironment}} provides methods to convert DataSets and DataStreams into Tables and back. These methods are called {{toTable()}}, {{toSet()}}, and {{toStream()}}.
> I propose to rename the methods into {{fromDataSet()}}, {{fromDataStream()}}, {{toDataSet()}}, and {{toDataStream()}} for the following reasons:
> - {{fromDataSet()}}, {{fromDataStream()}} is closer to the SQL FROM expression
> - It allows to add methods such as {{fromCSV()}}, {{fromHCat()}}, {{fromParquet()}}, and so on to the {{TableEnvironment}}
> - {{toSet()}} and {{toStream()}} should be renamed for consistency.
