             Summary: Clarify some of the messages in 
Preconditions.checkArgument
                 Key: MAHOUT-1317
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-1317
             Project: Mahout
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.9
            Reporter: BFL
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.9


In experimenting with things, I was getting some errors from RowSimilarityJob, 
that in looking at the source I realized were a little incomplete as to what 
the true issue was.  In this case, they were of the form:

Preconditions.checkArgument(maxSimilaritiesPerRow > 0, "Incorrect maximum 
number of similarities per row!");

Here, it is known that the actual issue is that the parameter must be zero (or 
negative), not just that it's "incorrect", and a (trivial) change to the error 
message might save some folks some time... especially newbies like myself.

A quick grep of the code showed a few more cases like that across the code base 
that would be (apparently) easy to fix and maybe save folks time when they get 
the relevant error.
