import deepchem as dc

See original GitHub issue

Currently deepchem suffers from a glut of long imports. The package structure leads to long names that aren’t friendly to import or reason with. Here are some proposed changes (building on ideas in #264):

Like numpy or tensorflow, change deepchem import to dc. Then to import a primitive in deepchem.prim (proposed in #264), users can say dc.prim.foo_bar(...)
Expose all deepchem models in deepchem.models. Then models can be created with model = dc.models.RobustMultitask(...) for example.

The new names are much more ambiguous. I weep for a new student trying to understand “feats” “hyper” and “trans”. With modern IDEs, the autocomplete should take care of the extra keystrokes

I think the code transition is complete. Feedback from active deepchem users has been mostly positive, so the new API is here to stay. For further style discussions, please raise new issues with specific code examples that are awkward under new API and we can discuss there.
