I agree. We could rename it RealFieldElement if you prefer. > The real question is do we really want to add all of the > methods in the interface.

The fact is I use all trigonometric functions in FieldRotation (and to a lesser extend in FieldVector), plus a few others like sqrt and so on. Once I have all these functions, it seemed more consistent to also add the remaining ones (and in fact I will also need the hyperbolic functions later on). These methods are the ones that urge me to cut a release. best regards, Luc > > Phil > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
