Hello, I am about to submit some code for issue Math-817 involving fitting multivariate normal mixture models using the EM algorithm. In order to simplify the unit test, I added overrode equals and hashCode. This in turn required me to make a few changes to code in the previously resolved issues Math-815 and Math-816. Am I supposed to just send one patch to 817, or am I supposed to break the patches up according to issue number?
Also, I notice the equals method in org.apache.commons.math3.linear.AbstractRealMatrix directly compares the results of getEntry(), which are often doubles. Is this OK? I don't have a great deal of experience in overriding equals where doubles are involved. I have read that it is a good idea to use Double.doubleToLongBits and the use "==" or "!=". http://www.javapractices.com/topic/TopicAction.do?Id=17 Thanks, Jared Email Disclaimer: www.stjude.org/emaildisclaimer Consultation Disclaimer: www.stjude.org/consultationdisclaimer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
