Gilles Sadowski commented on MATH-1550:
---------------------------------------

{quote}For this class, none of this matters because it's not a public class and 
it's only ever instantiated in a method
{quote}
Perhaps you could clarify the documentation in another PR (?).
{quote}[...] how sparse the testing for SimplexSolver is. [...] first implement 
[...] tests for both correctness and performance.
{quote}
Sure; more tests are welcome.
{quote}if you really want to explore making the matrix immutable
{quote}
*Me* not really. ;)
 We are looking for knowledgeable people to help maintain the various areas of 
this large project. Several chunks have already been extracted from "Commons 
Math" into more manageable (more focused) components:
 * [Commons RNG|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-rng/]
 * [Commons Numbers|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-numbers/]
 * [Commons Geometry|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-geometry/]

For all of them, the move entailed many improvements, including enhanced 
performance and higher test coverage.

> Class {{SimplexTableau}} is package private and does not seem designed for 
> inheritance, but it contains "protected" methods.
> There are several instance fields that should preferably be made "final" (for 
> thread safety). It seems that to do this, some design changes are necessary 
> (a.o. the relationship with {{SimplexSolver}} should be clarified).
>  
> {{SimplexSolver}} also contains a protected method ({{solvePhase1}}) that is 
> not documented for inheritance.
