Subject: [jira] [Commented] (MATH-690) Remove methods from "MathUtils"

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-690?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13126729#comment-13126729 ] 

Gilles commented on MATH-690:
-----------------------------

For "byte", "short", "int", "long", do we keep "sign" or "indicator"?
Another alternative would be to replace them with "signum" or "copySign" in order to have a consistent naming with their counterpart in "FastMath".

> I propose to remove the following methods from "MathUtils":
>   public static double sign(final double x)
>   public static float sign(final float x)
>   public static double sinh(double x)
>   public static double cosh(double x)
> Also, "sign" and "indicator" functions seem redundant (and the "float" and
> "double" versions are not dealing correctly with -0.0).
