Dear All,
Several months ago I became the official maintainer of Boost.Rational, and am just now getting around to considering proposed modifications to the library.
I would like to know:
1. Do people use Boost.Rational, and if so, what is it used for, and with what template parameters? type (if I can find one) as the template parameter.
I use rational<int> in a scientific application. It's specifying a step size, and I wanted to avoid situations where, e.g., someone gave a step of 1/3 and didn't get exactly 3 steps from 0 to 1. I'm happy with it as is.
