> I have been converting over some of my code that used Jama to use commons-math. One thing I would like to have is Matrix.normF() which returns the Frobenius norm (ie the square root of the sum of squares of all the elements).
> I have gotten around this by implementing this as a utility method, like so:
>   /**
>    * Return the square root of the sum of squares of all elements in
>    * the matrix. In Jama, it is Matrix.normF().
>    * @param matrix a RealMatrix.
>    * @return the Frobenius norm.
>    */
>   public static double getFrobeniusNorm(RealMatrix matrix) {
>     double frobeniusNorm = 0.0D;
>     for (int row = 0; row < matrix.getRowDimension(); row++) {
>       for (int col = 0; col < matrix.getColumnDimension(); col++) {
>          frobeniusNorm += Math.pow(matrix.getEntry(row, col), 2);
>       }
>     }
>     return Math.sqrt(frobeniusNorm);
>   }
> It would be nice if RealMatrix mandated a method getFrobeniusNorm() like getNorm(), that way this method is available from within a RealMatrix.
