I know nothing about the details of this algorithm, but what I thought I had
understood about the requested changes is that they were linked to the use
of "ulps" and thus, I think that it would be preferrable to use them
explicitely in the algorithm instead of "getEpsilon"; we would avoid a mix
of "double" (epsilon) and "int" (maxUlps) variables (where the former in
fact hides the latter).
If necessary we could also add "compareTo(double, double, int)" in
"MathUtils".
Best regards,
Gilles
