             Summary: Consider making a generic version of class Frequency
                 Key: MATH-944
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-944
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 3.1
            Reporter: Thomas Neidhart
             Fix For: 4.0
         Attachments: Frequency.java

The current version of the Frequency class is quite complex, as it has to handle different input values and does a lot of casting.

The class is also not very safe in the sense that adding different data types will lead to runtime exceptions.

The class could be simplified by introducing a generic version. The only downside so far is that the current version treats ints and longs together, which would not be possible with a generic version.
