Gilles Sadowski commented on NUMBERS-163:
-----------------------------------------
bq. [...] benchmarks
Using the one from PR #97, {{Sum}} is consistently ~15% faster.
I assume that it exercises the intended use case (array arguments). I had been
testing chained calls...
I've just committed {{Sum}} from PR #97 with some minor changes:
* Javadoc style
* Replaced methods with multiple similar arguments (cf. earlier comment)
Please review.
> Summation and LinearCombination Accumulators

> Key: NUMBERS-163
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUMBERS-163
> Project: Commons Numbers
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Matt Juntunen
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: FMA.java, Sum.java
>
> Time Spent: 1h 20m
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> It would be useful to have simple accumulator classes in {{Summation}} and
> {{LinearCombination}} to perform extended precision operations on arbitrary
> collections of values without requiring conversion to {{double[]}}. Ex:
> {code:java}
> Summation.Accumulator sum= Summation.accumulator(1d);
> sum.add(x)
> .add(y)
> .add(z)
> .add(w);
> double sumResult = sum.get();
> LinearCombination.Accumulator comb = LinearCombination.accumulator(1d);
> comb.add(x, scale)
> .add(y, scale)
> .add(z, scale)
> .add(w, scale);
> double combResult = comb.get();
> {code}
