The referenced page of octave also makes the distinction between element-by= -element operations and overloaded operations with different operands. The prefix map comes from the functional world and is well understood imho. As we have not deprecated anything in 3.x and the proposal is not very conv= incing for me, I propose to close it finally as won't fix. > Rename RealVector.map* to RealVector.ebe* (mapAdd(...) to ebeAdd(...) and= mapAddToSelf(...) to ebeAddToSelf(...) for instance > -------------------------------------------------------------------------= ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MATH-643 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-643 > Project: Commons Math > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Arne Pl=C3=B6se > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 4.0 > > > I think the map* methods have historical names.
