Eric Barnhill commented on NUMBERS-65:
--------------------------------------
The test coverage of nthRoot seems pretty thorough and if RootsOfUnity is
eliminated, I don't think any of the tests need to be transferred.
> "RootsOfUnity" vs "nthRoot"

> Key: NUMBERS-65
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUMBERS-65
> Project: Commons Numbers
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: complex
> Reporter: Gilles
> Priority: Major
> Labels: API, delete, gsoc2018
> Fix For: 1.0
>
>
> There is partial overlap of functionality between class {{RootsOfUnity}} and
> method {{nthRoot}} (in class {{Complex}}).
> The latter is more general (any complex number) but the former allows a
> negative argument (to specify clockwise ordering).
> Also, the implementations are different; it should be checked which is more
> accurate (and then account for possible performance trade-offs).
> API-wise, I think that we should keep {{nthRoot}} (and delete
> {{RootsOfUnity}}).
