Overrides:

isZero in class RealNum

rneg

public final RatNum rneg()

Overrides:

rneg in class RealNum

infinity

public static RatNum infinity(int sign)

Return exact "rational" infinity.

Parameters:

sign - either 1 or -1 for positive or negative infinity

          RatNum y)

equals

public static boolean equals(RatNum x,
             RatNum y)

equals

power

public Numeric power(IntNum y)

Description copied from class: Numeric

Return this raised to an integer power. Implemented by repeated squaring and multiplication. If y < 0, returns div_inv of the result.

Overrides:

power in class Numeric

toExact

public final RatNum toExact()

Description copied from class: RealNum

Convert to an exact number. Implements the Scheme inexact->exact (for real numbers).

Overrides:

toExact in class RealNum

toInt

public RealNum toInt(int rounding_mode)

Description copied from class: RealNum

Converts a real to an integer, according to a specified rounding mode. Note an inexact argument gives an inexact result, following Scheme. See also toExactInt.

Overrides:

toInt in class RealNum

toExactInt

public IntNum toExactInt(int rounding_mode)

Description copied from class: RealNum

Converts to an exact integer, with specified rounding mode.

Overrides:

toExactInt in class RealNum

rationalize

public static RealNum rationalize(RealNum x,
                  RealNum y)

Calcaulte the simplest rational between two reals.
