Gilles created MATH-1388:
----------------------------
Summary: Default number of iterations in integrators
Key: MATH-1388
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1388
Project: Commons Math
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Gilles
Priority: Trivial
Fix For: 4.0
In {{TrapezoidIntegrator}} and {{MidPointIntegrator}}, the default value for
the number of iterations is set to 64.
At iteration 64, the number of points would be 2^63, whereas the [largest
positive long value is 2^63 -
1|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Long.html#MAX_VALUE].
Even if the default is set to 63, is such a huge value reasonable?
The default value should be defined as a "private" field.
