A more serious question was brought up: where are the efficient and super fast\nJava linear algebra and complex number libraries?</p>\n\n<p>There is <a href=\"http://www.cs.waikato.ac.nz/ml/weka/\">Weka</a> but it is more aimed at data analysis. I believe it has support principle component analysis, so it\nmust have singular value decomposition. There is a book called <strong>Java Number Cruncher: The Java Programmer’s Guide to Numerical Computing</strong>\nby Ronald Mak, 2003, Prentice Hall.</p>\n\n<p>After some further asking about it on the channel, they mentioned the <a href=\"http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/math/\">Apache commons math</a> project,\nwhich seems promising. The website mentions complex numbers, linear algebra, statistics and numerical analysis, but have not looked at the full API,\nso not sure how well populated these areas are.</p>\n\n<p>Anyone, with experience in the area of numerical computing and Java?</p>",
