Gilles commented on STATISTICS-7:
---------------------------------
Both "Commons Numbers" and "Commons Statistics" are new components (not
released yet).
There must not be any overlapping code; "Commons Statistics" can (and, very
likely, will) depend on "Commons Numbers". Modules of "Commons Numbers" collect
lowest-level tools (i.e. no dependency allowed).
bq. assumption correct?
Not sure what you mean.

> Key: STATISTICS-7
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STATISTICS-7
> Project: Apache Commons Statistics
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Eric Barnhill
> Priority: Major
> Labels: GSoC2019, gsoc2019, statistics, streams
>
> The new component aims to be a library of commons statistics functions
> synchronized with the latest developments in the Java language, in particular
> Java's functional programming syntax.
> The library will make commonly used statistical functions available to an end
> user through a simple grammar comparable to commons-math-statistics or
> scikit-learn, while under the hood will implement Java's mapping, streaming,
> and other producer and consumer functions to ensure the statistical methods
> run optimally in new Java implementations.
> Developers working on the project will have the opportunity to demonstrate
> Java programming, functional programming, algorithm design, and data science
> skills and receive authorship on a commons project that is likely to be
> widely used.
> The ideal contributor will also be able to help with important architectural
> decision making. The old source of these libraries, commons-math, grew too
> large, hierarchically complex and interdependent for the commons mission. The
> developers on this project need to make architectural choices that will
> enable the statiscal code to be lightweight and reusable, with a minimum of
> outside dependencies while avoiding redundancy.
