One of my colleagues with a strong math background has corrected many of my API javadoc comments seeking to avoid any ambiguity.  See reference below about positive integers.

Positive numbers

A positive number is any number that is greater than 0. **Unlike positive integers**, which include 0 and the [natural numbers](https://www.math.net/natural-numbers), positive numbers include [fractions](https://www.math.net/fraction), [decimals](https://www.math.net/decimal), and other types of [numerals](https://www.math.net/numerals).
