Phil Steitz commented on MATH-370:
----------------------------------
-1 for the change. It will break some internal things and likely some user
applications that depend on the documented behavior. The reason that these
methods exist is to be able to handle NaNs and treat them as equal.
> NaN in "equals" methods
> -----------------------

> Key: MATH-370
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-370
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Gilles
> Priority: Minor
>
> In "MathUtils", some "equals" methods will return true if both argument are
> NaN.
> Unless I'm mistaken, this contradicts the IEEE standard.
> If nobody objects, I'm going to make the changes.
