----------------------------------

Interesting Luc. I will try to reproduce this. Thanks for the additional information.

> I needed a way to deal with large sparse matrices using commons-math RealMatrix, so I implemented it. The SparseRealMatrixImpl is a subclass of RealMatrixImpl, and the backing data structure is a Map<Point,Double>, where Point is a struct like inner-class which exposes two int parameters row and column. I had to make some changes to the existing components to keep the code for SparseRealMatrixImpl clean. Here are the details.
> 1) RealMatrix.java:
>    - added a new method setEntry(int, int, double) to set data into a matrix
> 2) RealMatrixImpl.java:
>    - changed all internal calls to data[i][j] to getEntry(i,j).
>    - for some methods such as add(), subtract(), premultiply(), etc, there
>      was code that checked for ClassCastException and had two versions,
>      one for a generic RealMatrix and one for a RealMatrixImpl. This has
>      been changed to have only one that operates on a RealMatrix. The 
>      result is something like auto-type casting. So if:
>        RealMatrixImpl.add(RealMatrix) returns a RealMatrixImpl
>        SparseRealMatrixImpl.add(RealMatrix) returns a SparseRealMatrixImpl
> 3) SparseRealMatrixImpl added as a subclass of RealMatrixImpl.
> 4) LUDecompositionImpl changed to use a clone of the passed in RealMatrix
>    instead of its data[][] block, and now it uses clone.getEntry(row,col)
>    calls instead of data[row][col] calls.
> 5) LUDecompositionImpl returned RealMatrixImpl for getL(), getU(), getP()
>    and solve(). It now returns the same RealMatrix impl that is passed 
>    in through its constructor for these methods.
> 6) New test for SparseRealMatrixImpl, mimics the tests in RealMatrixImplTest,
> 7) New static method to create SparseRealMatrixImpl out of a double[][] in
>    MatrixUtils.createSparseRealMatrix().
>    but using SparseRealMatrixImpl.
> 8) Verified that all JUnit tests pass.
