[jira] [Created] (MATH-1479) Remove Point

Baljit Singh created MATH-1479:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Remove Point
                 Key: MATH-1479
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1479
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Baljit Singh


Binding generic interfaces and classes with Point does not have any implications on most classes. Point interface should be removed. For classes that do require a distance method, there should be a Metric<P> (as in metric space) interface. This leads to a much cleaner and consistent API. Also semantically, a point is just a bunch of coordinates, and does not define distance... it is the metric that does.
