[jira] [Created] (MATH-881) Eliminate meaningless properties in multivariate distribution classes

Phil Steitz created MATH-881:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Eliminate meaningless properties in multivariate distribution classes
                 Key: MATH-881
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-881
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.0
            Reporter: Phil Steitz
             Fix For: 3.1, 4.0


The MultivariateRealDistribution interface includes the following properties which make no sense for multivariate distributions:
getSupportLowerBound, getSupporUpperBound, isSupportLowerBoundInclusive, isSupportUpperBoundInclusive
In addition, the following property makes sense, but is unlikely to be useful:
isSuportConnected

All of these properties should be deprecated in 3.1 and dropped in 4.0

[jira] [Commented] (MATH-881) Eliminate meaningless properties in multivariate distribution classes

Gilles commented on MATH-881:
-----------------------------

Shall I also remove this method:
{code}
/**
 * For a random variable {@code X} whose values are distributed according to
 * this distribution, this method returns {@code P(X = x)}. In other words,
 * this method represents the probability mass function (PMF) for the
 * distribution.
 *
 * @param x Point at which the PMF is evaluated.
 * @return the value of the probability mass function at point {@code x}.
 */
double probability(double[] x);
{code}
?

We already discussed that all the (currently implemented) {{RealDistribution}} classes return zero. I guess that is is even less likely that an exotic {{MultivariateRealDistribution}} will soon be implemented...

bq. [...] nuke the pmf method.

Removed in revision 1400010.

This interface and implementing classes are post 3.0.
No need to wait for 4.0 to clean up. :)

----------------------------------

Sweet!  I did not realize this was post-3.0 stuff.  Yes, I would also nuke the pmf method.
