Interface Scalar<N extends Number>

All Superinterfaces:

Comparable<N>

All Known Implementing Classes:

BigScalar, ComplexNumber, PrimitiveScalar, RationalNumber

public interface Scalar<N extends Number>
extends Comparable<N>

Scalar was originally an abstraction of a matrix element designed to be used in matrix related code. It is still used for this to some extent, but now Scalar primarily is the common interface that defines ComplexNumber and RationalNumber.
