Matthias Boehm updated SYSTEMML-1357: ------------------------------------- Description: Right now our value type promotion semantics are inconsistent across matrices and scalars and across different types of binary scalar-scalar operations (relational, arithmetic, builtin). This task aims to fix this and establish the following value type promotion semantics: * if any input type is double, both inputs are interpreted as doubles * else if any input type is long, both inputs are interpreted as long * else if any input type is boolean, both inputs are interpreted as boolean Furthermore, (1) strings are not part of type promotion, and (2) boolean true/false is interpreted as 1/0 (consistent with matrix relational operations). was: Right now our value type promotion semantics are inconsistent across matrices and scalars and across different types of binary scalar-scalar operations (relational, arithmetic, builtin).
