Commons Math Release Notes
Changed Fraction(double) to correctly handle near-integral arguments.
Changed lcm to throw ArithmeticException (instead of returning bogus
value) if the result is too large to store as an integer.
Added factories for TTest, ChiSquareTest and TestUtils class with
static methods to create instances and execute tests.
Eliminated repeated endpoint function evalutations in BrentSolver, SecantSolver.
Added setSubMatrix methods to RealMatrix, BigMatrix.
Added createXIdentityMatrix methods to MatrixUtils and deprecated
getIdentity methods in RealMatrixImpl, BigMatrixImpl.
Modified RealMatrixImpl, BigMatrixImpl constructors to throw
IllegalArgumentExceptions instead of ArrayIndexOutOfBounds when
dimension arguments are not positive.
Made PRNG pluggable for classes in the random package. Added
RandomGenerator interface extracted from java.util.random and abstract
implementation, AbstractRandomGenerator providing default
implementations of methods based on nextDouble(). Added a constructor
taking a RandomGenerator as an argument to RandomDataImpl. Changed
ValueServer to use a RandomData in its constructor. Changes to
1.0 classes should be backward compatible (including serialization).
Ported numerics improvements in commons lang Fraction implementation.
Added utility methods for overflow-checked integer arithmetic and
improved gcd method in MathUtils.
Fixed error in TTestImpl.homoscedasticTtest. Implementation was
incorrectly using heteroscedastic t statistic. Also improved
sensitivity of test cases.
Fixed javadoc errors. One-sided t-test significance adjustment was
reversed in javadoc for boolean-valued test methods.
Fixed bug in PolynomialSplineFunction to allow evaluation of the
function at the last knot point.
Added Weibull distribution implementation.
Added Cauchy distribution implementation.
Added convenience methods for rounding.
Added Fraction class based on commons-lang implementation. With the
fraction class, FractionFormat and ProperFractionFormat classes were
added to provide fraction formatting and parsing.
Fixed error in ChiSquareTestImpl. Tables containing zeros were
(incorrectly) causing IllegalArgumentExceptions to be thrown.
Removed JDK 1.4-dependent code from CertifiedDataAbstractTest,
InvalidMatrixException and MatrixIndexException. Also dropped
BeanTransformer, BeanTransformerTest from the release.
Fixed cumulative frequency and cumulative percentage problem reported
to the commons-dev list by Jon Langlois on 9/14. Integer arguments to
getCumXxx were always returning 0 due to type conversion problems.
Fixed locale-dependency in ComplexFormat.
Renamed univariate package to descriptive and multivariate to
regression.
Improved efficiency of logGamma method in o.a.c.m.special.Gamma
Added subMatrix and matrix-valued row and column accessor methods to
RealMatrix, BigMatrix interfaces and RealMatrixImpl, BigMatrixImpl.
Implemented equals and hashCode in RealMatrixImpl and BigMatrixImpl.
Fixed RealMatrixImpl, BigMatrixImpl toString methods to handle empty
matrix.
Added support for "population" variance and standard deviation in
Variance (resp. StandardDeviation) classes.
Removed data mutators from RealMatrix, BigMatrix interfaces and
RealMatrixImpl, BigMatrixImpl. RealMatrix and BigMatrix instances
are now immutable.
Added MatrixUtils class, including static factory methods to create
RealMatrix and BigMatrix instances from arrays of various types.
Changed factorial methods to return 1 for argument = 0, instead of
(incorrectly) throwing IllegalArgumentException.
Fixed error in SimpleRegression.getSignificance. Value returned was
off by a factor of 2 (did not match javadoc).
Refactored distribution package so that mixed distributions and
discrete distributions with non-integer values can be represented.
Added Distribution base interface as well as IntegerDistribution
extending DiscreteDistribution. Previously existing discrete
distributions now implement IntegerDistribution.
Added Poisson distribution implementation.
Eliminated unecessary array copy operations in RealMatrixImpl,
BigMatrixImpl add, multiply, solve and subtract operations.
