We have slowly been adding only snake_case function names in R for many years now. However, much of our documentation (R docs and probably tutorials etc) still uses the camelCase versions.

Let’s modernize our docs, and also decide if we want to official recommend snake_case for the very popular functions like {{h2o.getModel()}}, etc.

Look at {{h2o.get_automl()}} to see examples of how to alias in R. Let’s move all the camelCase functions to a file and make those the alias version.

Let’s consider officially deprecating the camelCase functions (but first more thoroughly discuss the impact of doing this). {{.Deprecated("") is called from deprecated functions. The original help page for these functions is often available at help("oldName-deprecated") (note the quotes). Functions should be listed in help("pkg-deprecated") for an appropriate pkg, including base.}}
