Baljit Singh updated MATH-1478:
-------------------------------
    Affects Version/s: 3.6.1

> Overflow in Vector norm and distance
> ------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: MATH-1478
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1478
>             Project: Commons Math
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>    Affects Versions: 3.6.1
>            Reporter: Baljit Singh
>            Priority: Minor
>
> In Euclidean Vector classes (Vector2D, Vector3D), getNorm() and distance() 
> rely on FastMath.sqrt(), which can overflow if the components of the vectors 
> are large. Instead, they should rely on FastMath.hypot(double, double, 
> double), which is equivalent to FastMath.hypot(double, double), but with 3 
> (or N) arguments.
