Naming confusion
----------------

                 Key: MATH-707
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-707
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Gilles
            Assignee: Gilles
            Priority: Trivial
             Fix For: 3.0


This issue was raised in [this 
thread|http://markmail.org/thread/4h6omyqsik65rcgv] on the "dev" ML.
It proposes to consistently name classes/interfaces that refer to number types 
(e.g. "Real", "Complex", ...) and structure (e.g. "Scalar", "Vectorial", ...), 
with "Real" and "Scalar" components in names being assumed (thus, not to be 
included in the name).

For example, for the "Univariate..." interfaces (in package "analysis"), the 
proposal is to operate the following renaming:
* {{UnivariateRealFunction}} -> {{UnivariateFunction}}
* {{UnivariateRealVectorialFunction}} -> {{UnivariateVectorFunction}}
* {{UnivariateMatrixFunction}} -> {{UnivariateMatrixFunction}}

Similar changes are in order in the package "optimization" (where "Real" is 
sometimes included in the name and sometimes not, or used instead of "Scalar").
