Question about JEP 306.

[A Z]

-I have been wondering what interest, focus or progress

is happening around OpenJDK JEP 306:


http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/306


-As a Java feature request, could I request feature 306?
Underflow and overflow need to be eliminated
from double and float.

-The other thing that there should be is a StrictMath
that works for BigInteger and BigDecimal, allowing

pow(BigDecimal,BigDecimal)

which would allow for any power at all, as well as the nth root.

e(...)

pi(...)

sin(Bigdecimal)

Would probably be excellent ideas for such a maths class.


Is there someone on this list who can reply in the digest,

or point me to a better OpenJDK direction, plase?
