Aims

Creating and maintaining a mathematical and statistical library that is accurate requires a greater degree of communication than might be the case for other components. It is important that developers follow guidelines laid down by the community to ensure that the code they create can be successfully maintained by others.

Guidelines

Developers are asked to comply with the following development guidelines. Code that does not comply with the guidelines including the word must will not be committed. Our aim will be to fix all of the exceptions to the «should» guidelines prior to a release.

Contributing

Start by reviewing the overall objectives stated in the proposal upon which the project is founded.
Download the Commons Math source code. Follow the instructions under the heading «Repository Checkout» on the Git at the ASF page. The git url for the current development sources of Commons Math is

http://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-math.git

https://apacheid@gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-math.git

Contributing ideas and code

Follow the steps below when making suggestions for additions or enhancements to Commons Math. This will make it easier for the community to comment on your ideas and for the committers to keep track of them. Thanks in advance!

Start with a post to the commons-dev mailing list, with [math] at the beginning of the subject line, followed by a good, short title describing the new feature or enhancement. For example, «[math] Principal Components Analysis.» The body of the post should include each of the following items (but be as brief as possible):
- A concise description of the new feature / enhancement
- References to definitions and algorithms. Using standard definitions and algorithms makes communication much easier and will greatly increase the chances that we will accept the code / idea
- Some indication of why the addition / enhancement is practically useful
Assuming a generally favorable response to the idea on commons-dev, the next step is to add an entry to the Math Wish List corresponding to the idea. Include a reference to the discussion thread.
Create a JIRA ticket using the the feature title as the short description. Incorporate feedback from the initial posting in the description. Add a reference to the JIRA ticket to the WishList entry.
Submit code as attachments to the JIRA ticket. Please use one ticket for each feature, adding multiple patches to the ticket as necessary. Use the git diff command to generate your patches as diffs. Please do not submit modified copies of existing java files. Be patient (but not too patient) with committers reviewing patches. Post a *nudge* message to commons-dev with a reference to the ticket if a patch goes more than a few days with no comment or commit.

Coding Style

Commons Math follows Code Conventions for the Java Programming Language. As part of the maven build process, style checking is performed using the Checkstyle plugin, using the properties specified in checkstyle.xml . Committed code should generate no Checkstyle errors. One thing that Checkstyle will complain about is tabs included in the source code. Please make sure to set your IDE or editor to use spaces instead of tabs.

Committers should configure the

. They define the identity and mail of the committer. See Customizing Git — Git Configuration in the git book for explanation about how to configure these settings and more.

Documentation

Committed code must include full javadoc.
All component contracts must be fully specified in the javadoc class, interface or method comments, including specification of acceptable ranges of values, exceptions or special return values.
External references or full statements of definitions for all mathematical terms used in component documentation must be provided.
Commons math javadoc generation now supports embedded LaTeX formulas via the MathJax javascript display engine. To embed mathematical expressions formatted in LaTeX in javadoc, simply surround the expression to be formatted with either

Exceptions

Exceptions generated by Commons Math are all unchecked.
All public methods advertise all exceptions that they can generate. Exceptions must be documented in both javadoc and method signatures and the documentation in the javadoc must include full description of the conditions under which exceptions are thrown.
Methods should fully specify parameter preconditions required for successful activation. When preconditions are violated, a MathIllegalArgumentException should be thrown. Subclasses of MathIllegalArgumentException may be used to represent common parameter contract violations (for example, NoBracketingException). Exception messages must contain sufficient information on parameter values to determine the exact precondition failure.
Exceptions generated by Commons Math make sense without knowing implementation details other than those stated in the public API. For example, a NoBracketingException makes sense thrown by a solver that has a precondition requiring that initial points bracket a root. This exception does not make sense, however, thrown by an inverse cumulative probability estimator.
MathIllegalArgumentException should only be thrown in situations where preconditions can be exhaustively provided so that what arguments are «illegal» can be specified fully to the caller. Domain-specific exceptions need to be defined for cases where failures cannot be attributed to parameter precondition violation. For example, the exact domain of successful activation of a solver or quadrature method may be impossible to specify because of numerical properties of the method. If a solver fails to find a root or a quadrature method fails to converge for a given set of parameters, unless those parameters violate the advertised preconditions it is not appropriate to throw MathIllegalArgumentException.
State information included in exception messages must be available in exception properties — i.e., successful handling or reporting of Commons Math exceptions must not require parsing exception messages.

Unit Tests

Committed code must include unit tests.
Unit tests should provide full path coverage.
Unit tests should verify all boundary conditions specified in interface contracts, including verification that exceptions are thrown or special values (e.g. Double.NaN, Double.Infinity) are returned as expected.

Licensing and copyright

All new source file submissions must include the Apache Software License in a comment that begins the file
All contributions must comply with the terms of the Apache Contributor License Agreement (CLA)
Patches must be accompanied by a clear reference to a «source» — if code has been «ported» from another language, clearly state the source of the original implementation. If the «expression» of a given algorithm is derivative, please note the original source (textbook, paper, etc.).
References to source materials covered by restrictive proprietary licenses should be avoided. In particular, contributions should not implement or include references to algorithms in Numerical Recipes (NR). Any questions about copyright or patent issues should be raised on the commons-dev mailing list before contributing or committing code.
