MATH-1535: Recurring issue with method "fixTies" (WIP).
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
Current code is too fragile:
 * Adding "jitter" does not work reliably.
 * Changing the seed of the RNG make unit tests fail.

This commit includes:
 * Changing from "MathInternalError" to "MaxCountExceededException".
 * Using named variables for hard-coded values.
 * Adding unit tests (set to "@ignore" to let the build pass).
 * Handling infinite values to avoid creating NaN values.
  • Loading branch information
