Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-65: --------------------------------- You are right. I think these two changes kind of collided as they were submitted about the same time. I will review all the existing clone() methods and make fixes. NB that the clone() method must be updated when you add fields! think of it as another pseudo-constructor (which is one reason Josh Bloch kind of argues against clone()). May seem bad, but this is just the old copy() method, and it does have its uses. > Add Element Labels to Vectors and Matrices > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAHOUT-65 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-65 > Project: Mahout > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Matrix > Affects Versions: 0.1 > Reporter: Jeff Eastman > Assignee: Jeff Eastman > Attachments: MAHOUT-65-name.patch, MAHOUT-65-name.patch, > MAHOUT-65-name.patch, MAHOUT-65.patch, MAHOUT-65b.patch, MAHOUT-65c.patch, > MAHOUT-65d.patch > > > Many applications can benefit by accessing elements in vectors and matrices > using String labels in addition to numeric indices.
