Is a rational number implementation that has been rounded, a rational number?... Yes, but not the one you expected.
can you rephrase this (most likely i don't get this one because of my english)
Assume you add 1/2 + 1/3 and you get the result 2/3 or 1/1. (assume a rational<uint2>) 2/3 is a rational number as is 1/1. BTW what would be the result in your rounding version of the calculation? regards Andy Little .
