Apache Commons Math

<!-- [](https://maven-badges.herokuapp.com/maven-central/org.apache.commons/commons-math4-parent/) --> <!-- [](https://javadoc.io/doc/org.apache.commons/commons-math4-parent/4.0) -->

"Commons Math" is undergoing major changes towards the next release (4.0):

• Low-level functionality has been split off to new components, often with many bug-fixes, performance enhancements and improved API:
  • "Commons Numbers" https://commons.apache.org/numbers
  • "Commons RNG" https://commons.apache.org/rng
  • "Commons Geometry" https://commons.apache.org/geometry
  • "Commons Statistics" https://commons.apache.org/statistics
• Functionality still within "Commons Math" is gradually being modularized and refactored.

Documentation

More information can be found on the Apache Commons Math homepage. The Javadoc can be browsed. Questions related to the usage of Apache Commons Math should be posted to the user mailing list.

Where can I get the latest release?
