A space for Commons-Math frequently asked questions.

=== 1. Are instances of 
org.apache.commons.math.stat.descriptive.DescriptiveStatisticsImpl thread-safe? 
===
No, they are not.  By design, we chose not to introduce thread semantics into 
the classes. This allows the library to be used in environments were thread 
management by the application is to be avoided.

=== 2. Can code derived from "Numerical Recipes" routines be included in 
commons-math? ===
Algorithms implemented in "Numerical Recipes" are 
[http://www.numerical-recipes.com/infotop.html#distinfo licensed under terms] 
that are incompatible with the Apache license.  As such, commons-math can not 
contain any code derived from these routines.  The precedent we have 
established is to not allow any code developed using NR as a source and instead 
find alternate citations for the algorithms detailed in NR.
