For my part, I'll provide the following macros in the next version:
BOOST_MPL_MATH_NUMERATOR_OF_MIXED_NUMBER(tag) BOOST_MPL_MATH_DENOMINATOR_OF_MIXED_NUMBER(tag) BOOST_MPL_MATH_WHOLE_PART_OF_RATIONAL(tag) BOOST_MPL_MATH_RATIONAL_PART_OF_RATIONAL(tag)
Done.
Is BOOST_MPL_MATH_RATIONAL_PART_OF_RATIONAL a re-statement of the rational number itself? Or is it supposed to be the remainder after taking out the "whole" part? If the former, then we probably need another macro for the latter. If the latter, then the name should have "FRACTIONAL" replacing the first "RATIONAL," since "fractional" and not "rational" better describes a left-over bit. (Rational numbers are a generalization of fractions that include values with absolute values greater than one, i.e. a numerator larger than its denominator [in absolute value].) -- Daryle Walker Mac, Internet, and Video Game Junkie darylew AT hotmail DOT com
