Gilles commented on MATH-643:
-----------------------------
In Perl, the output of
{code}
@a = (1, 2, 3);
print @a + 6;
{code}
is
{noformat}
9
{noformat}
while
{code}
@a = (1, 2, 3);
@a = map {$_ + 6} @a;
print join(",", @a);
{code}
will print
{noformat}
7,8,9
{noformat}
So? ;)
> Rename RealVector.map* to RealVector.ebe* (mapAdd(...) to ebeAdd(...) and
> mapAddToSelf(...) to ebeAddToSelf(...) for instance

> Key: MATH-643
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-643
> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 3.0
> Reporter: Arne Plöse
> Priority: Minor
>
> I think the map* methods have historical names. Today I would prefer ebe as
> prefix like ebeMultiply(...).
> This would describe the methods better from a users view.
> If this is a valid issue, I could provide a patch.
