Gilles Sadowski commented on NUMBERS-77:
----------------------------------------
bq. [interface with default methods] is much cleaner.
So if we agree on the basic design, I could merge the current version (as per
the attached diff). OK?
bq. Are we sure that PrecisionContext isn't the best option?
I feel that it doesn't say *what* the class does.
bq. I was picturing this as an easy way to compare to zero. [...] handling of
-0.0 [...] is entirely up to the implementation.
It's potentially confusing (giving the false sense that it can be used wherever
"signum" would be).
bq. It's essentially a signum but returning an int for strict equality checking
(eg, cmp == 0).
It can be done the same with the return type being {{double}} (and the
appropriate comment that a strict equality check is done on purpose).
