Luc Maisonobe commented on MATH-521:
------------------------------------
For sure this is much nicer than my ASCII art, both in source and in browser.
However, a GPL V3 tool, with a requirement that a complete LaTeX installation
and dvipng are installed for the build phase is far too much.

> (1) The "guess" method throws "OptimizationException" when the algorithm
> fails to determine valid values for amplitude and angular frequency.
> There are no test showing how such a situation can occur.
> Moreover, since this procedure is used to provide an initial guess to an
> optimizer, it is better to pick any values for those parameters (e.g. zero)
> and let the optimizer proceed from that initial point.
> (2) The class javadoc seems very thorough in explaining the algorithm, but is
> quite unreadable in the source code, making it fairly useless for checking
> how the code complies with the comments. I think that this explanation should
> go in the user guide (and leave a mostly "plain text" outline of the
> algorithm, referring to the guide for details). [Does the format of the user
> guide allow such tricky (ASCII "art") constructs?]
