I'm very new to Mahout and trying to learn starting with the classification algorithms since I have an application for it. I've got the book "Mahout in Action" and am working through chapter 14. This book is excellent, but I have to say the Mahout documentation has some real shortcomings. Especially for developers wanting to use Mahout from a Java program. Is there any effort underway to improve this so that newbies like me would have an easier time figuring out how to use what looks like a great library?
One specific example I am trying to find is where the class org.apache.mahout.math.RandomAccessSparseVector is? It is used quite a bit in this book, yet I can't seem to find the class anywhere. The javadocs for 0.6 don't show that class (or several others that are referenced in the book). Can you help me understand where those classes are of if they have been replaced with others already please point me at the replacements. Thanks, Dave
