Alex Herbert commented on NUMBERS-148:
--------------------------------------
I've just read [MATH-1549]. Sorry for crossed wires. However I think that the
scaling is error prone. Perhaps you should review the scaling in the Simplex
solver to see if overflow/underflow are possible and if so delegate to
{{Math.scalb}}, at least when rescaling away from 1.0 which is where the errors
would occur.
These functions would work for certain numbers but not all. As such I think
that use of the equivalents in {{java.lang.Math}} is preferred in almost all
situations.
