double as FieldElement
----------------------

                 Key: MATH-756
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-756
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 3.1
            Reporter: Sébastien Brisard
            Assignee: Sébastien Brisard
            Priority: Minor


As discussed on the mailing-list, it is proposed to develop a wrapper class 
around the {{double}} primitive type. This wrapper class should implement 
{{FieldElement}}. This would allow generic calculations on exchangeable number 
types (big fractions, big decimals, fractions, decimals). This class will be 
called {{Decimal64}} (together with the corresponding {{Decimal64Field}}). 

Similarly, to the {{BigReal}} class, the newly created {{Decimal64}} class 
could go to the {{o.a.c.m3.util}} package.
