Bruno P. Kinoshita commented on NUMBERS-43:
-------------------------------------------
>Here I suggest to remove a utility which has no identified usage (cf. "Commons
>Math" codebase).
Ack
>Are the float methods defined in Precision helpful tools for those
>manipulations? In the affirmative, we must keep them. If not, why bother (in
>v1.0)?
Makes sense.
>What about
>
> Perform the crusade (limited to the yet unreleased "Numbers"...)
> Make a note about it in the "ANNOUNCE" message and in the "RELEASE NOTES"
>
> Then, depending on the feedback, we can go forward with what the user
> community really needs/wants.
In that case I'm +0 for removing it :-) should any user with a valid argument
suggests adding the method, we can just proceed and add it then.
> Remove "round(float)" methods?

> In class {{Precision}}, there are methods for rounding {{float}} values, e.g.
> {code:java}
> public static float round(float x, int scale, int roundingMethod) { /* ... */
> }
> {code}
> Is there any use for supporting specific handling of floats (in these times
> where memory is not a scarce resources anymore)?
