Luc Maisonobe commented on MATH-195:
------------------------------------

Are these FunctionEvaluationException throws declaration really bad ? They 
bring information to the users who dare reading the javadoc. They can be 
ignored since now they are unchecked so we get the best of both worlds.

> I think there are some inconsistencies in the hierarchy of exceptions used by 
> the Commons Math library which could easily be fixed:
>   - org.apache.commons.math.linear.MatrixIndexException should really be a 
> subclass of
>     java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException.
>   - Either org.apache.commons.math.linear.InvalidMatrixException should be 
> checked or
>     org.apache.commons.math.random.NotPositiveDefiniteMatrixException and
>     org.apache.commons.math.geometry.NotARotationMatrixException should be 
> unchecked, but in any case the latter two
>     should be subclasses of the former. An unchecked InvalidMatrixException 
> should probably be a subclass of
>     java.lang.ArithmeticException while a checked InvalidMatrixException 
> should be a subclass of
>     org.apache.commons.math.MathException.
