[jira] Commented: (MATH-490) Add methods for BigDecimal and BigInteger arithmetic that are not available in the standard offerings

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-490?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13007810#comment-13007810 ] 

Miroslav Pokorny commented on MATH-490:
---------------------------------------

Looks good/interesting. 

Few suggestions:

- As another user, we love Javadoc :)
- remove the main/test from the GenericXXX classes - not sure why they are there, they must be left overs.
- GenericInteger.isEven(BigInteger) can be replaced with a simple test if bit 0 of the BigInteger is clear.
- It seems many methods are unnecessary re-creating BigInteger instances eg: GenericInteger.max/min, do the compare and return the answer, without copying.
- Please make your classes immutable or clarify in javadoc.
- Please join the method calls with a few parameters instead of putting each param on a single line. Its really hard to follow as a few statements quickly overflow onto another screen.
