Fraction support for .net

Primary LanguageVisual Basic

Fraction

It is implemented over BigInteger. Minimum .Net Framework version is 4.0.

Features

  1. Automatically simplifies the fraction.
  2. Fraction can be represented in form of Mixed Fraction.
  3. Supports undefined values (Undefined,+Infinity,-Infinity).
  4. Data type BigInteger is used and can store all possible rational numbers.
  5. String-Fraction conversion (ToString() or TryParse()).
  6. Supports comparisons, conversions and operations.
  7. Use Approces() function or Like operator to check if two numbers are similar. e.g (3.14 Like 22/7) == true
  8. Open source.

Upcoming Features

  1. Reducing fraction
  2. Convertion from Float/Double/Decimal to Fraction

Example

Fraction f1 = "0.5";			//1/2
Fraction f2 = "1.2/0.6";		//2/1
Fraction f3 = f1 + f2;			//5/2
Fraction f4 = f1 * f2;			//1/1
Fraction f5 = f1.Square;		//1/4
Fraction pi1 = "3.14";			//157/50
Fraction pi2 = "22/7";			//22/7
bool b = pi1.Approches(pi2);	//true
