> Key: NUMBERS-51
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUMBERS-51
> Project: Commons Numbers
> Issue Type: Wish
> Reporter: Gilles
> Labels: API
> Fix For: 1.0

> As per the [ongoing discussion on the
> ML|http://markmail.org/message/vsobmfkcpur7kobm], it might be a good idea to
> introduce classes/interfaces that represent the concept of
> ["field"|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_%28mathematics%29].
> A design goal is to provide an API for advanced usage (e.g. algorithm that
> can be implemented on any "field") while being light-weight for basic usage
> of classes such as {{Complex}} and {{Fraction}}.
