I successfully downloaded the maths components under ' http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/commons/proper/math/trunk/' . I use my subversion client for the download. I got all the folders ( and files in each folder) inside the trunk.
If i need to write say a very simple java code that would call say a random number generating class( and its methods) , what do I need to do in eclipse ? Also, If I find a need to add code to any of the raw java files that came with the download, how can I re-compile or build the java source from say eclipse and from say maven ? kunle On Mon, Jun 3, 2013 at 3:10 PM, Phil Steitz <phil.ste...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 6/3/13 4:18 AM, Thomas Neidhart wrote: > > Hi, > > > > to start working on the Monte Carlo engine (see MATH-463) I would like to > > break this thing up in multiple pieces.
