Description

Issue related to this proposal.

There seemed to be a global agreement on the following break-up:

• Arithmetics (for "addAndCheck", "factorial", "gcd", ...)
• Precision (for "equals", "compare", ...)
• Binomial (for "binomialCoefficient")
• MathArrays (for "linearCombination", "distance", "safeNorm", "sortInPlace", "copyOf", ...)

I think that "ordinary" mathematical functions ("pow", "cosh", ...) should go into "FastMath" (if not already available there).
