To be clear, I don't really care one way or the other. I just thought it was probably good to have a formal discussion on the matter. I'm also a math geek, so I like reading the emails sometimes (sometimes they're way over my head too). It takes me back to my college days. :) I would probably s

Hello. James, it's good that you bring this up here. This is something I've been thinking about lately. I agree that the mathematical knowledge that seems to be necessary to dig into [MATH] goes beyond what you learn in Computer Science courses at university. I usually skip discussions abo

Hi All: I'm only a casual [math] user (we use [math] at work for some *very* simple things), but I hope that we, the wider [commons] community, has been beneficial in sharing expertise in Java, design, and other non-mathematics but programming related issues. That whole thread about exceptions a w

It was mentioned the other day, so I thought I would propose a formal discussion. Is it time to let [math] "leave the nest"? I would doubt there are very many of us qualified to work on such a library here in Commons. I have a degree in Mathematics, but I haven't used the advanced math in such a
