Thomas Neidhart commented on MATH-610:
--------------------------------------
While Dave is spot-on with his observation, I think in this case it is not as
severe as outlined in the discussion. The private inner class IntDoublePair is
not used in any public/protected method and the equals method is never used for
this class.
Otoh, the patch looks ok, so either we take it or just close this issue as
Won't Fix.
> [patch] objects that use compareTo should have equals as well

> NaturalRanking implements compareTo. Code that implements compareTo should
> also implement equals, and those that implement equals should implement
> hashCode. This patch does this.
