Describe your change:
Fixes #8863
Deleted the
arithmetic_analysis/
directory and relocated its files because the purpose of the directory was always ill-defined. "Arithmetic analysis" isn't a known field of math, and the directory's files contained algorithms for linear algebra, numerical analysis, and even physics.Relocated the directory's linear algebra algorithms to
linear_algebra/
, its numerical analysis algorithms to a new subdirectory calledmaths/numerical_analysis/
, and its single physics algorithm tophysics/
. Doing this revealed multiple duplicate algorithms that will need to be consolidated/deleted in future PRs.Incidentally, I also had to fix #8863 in this PR by removing all instances of
eval
fromarithmetic_analysis/newton_raphson.py
becauseruff
wouldn't let me commit my changes otherwise.Checklist:
