Hi everybody, I wanted to discuss the addition of the Big-Math library( http://eobermuhlner.github.io/big-math/) as a dependency by CASSANDRA-17221 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-17221> which add support for abs, exp, log, log10, and round Math function. The library was added for providing those functions for the Cassandra decimal type (java BigDecimal).
This patch has been started a long time ago and went through multiple rounds of reviews and rework. In my enthusiasm to finally commit this patch I forgot to raise the discussion to the mailing list about the dependency. I apologize for that. Does anybody have some concerns with the addition of that Library as a dependency?
