Thanks for the explanation, it's interesting, and almost the same as "exact floating point" types which are represented as a/b x 2^n and have exact (arbitrary precision) operations for everything except division (which is unsupported).

John.

I didn’t see exact floating points in Boost. Are they already implemented? The idea is pretty similar, I even considered the option of removing Qn and using just 3 integer types for the representation, but using same strategy of only change Qd when needed by an operation. If there is someone already working on that datatype I will like to join the effort. Best regards, Damian
