[SciPy-User] It is quite confusing to use scipy.spatial.distance

[江大伟]

For a veteran, it may be very easy.

But if the user is a beginner and he does not know much detail of SciPy, he
just wants to computes the distance between two arrays quickly. An uniform
function and an uniform expression would be a good choice.

The SciPy is powerful now. So how to let the user use its powerful functions
more easily and quickly becomes our concern.
