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

Hi Jared,

well spotted. I think your proposal makes sense. I will also mark the other constructors as deprecated.

> I am still new to the Commons Math code base, so I am sorry if this is a dumb question.  I am browsing the code for EigenDecomposition, and both of its constructors have an unused parameter called splitTolerance.  The comments indicate that this is for backward compatibility.
> Would it be acceptable for me to simply include a one-parameter constructor that calls the two-parameter one, so backward compatibility is preserved and client code no longer needs to provide a pointless double?
