Sebb reopened MATH-260:
-----------------------
Yes, I know that the getXXX(Object) methods handle Integer specially; but so
does the addValue(Object) method - it has to, in case an Integer is passed as
an Object.
But why is there an addValue(Integer) method? What does it achieve?
There are no corresponding getXXX(Integer) methods.
> Inconsistent API in Frequency
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: MATH-260
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-260
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Sebb
> Priority: Minor
>
> The overloaded Frequency methods are not consistent in the parameter types
> that they handle.
> addValue() has an Integer version which converts the parameter to a Long, and
> then calls addValue(Object).
> The various getxxx() methods all handle Integer parameters as an Object.
> Seems to me that it would be better to treat Integer consistently.
> But perhaps there is a good reason for having an addValue(Integer) method but
> no getxxx(Integer) methods?
> If so, then it would be helpful to document this.
