Fraction Math in Every Language
Published on 10 October 2019 (Updated: 10 May 2022)
Welcome to the Fraction Math page! Here, you'll find a description of the project as well as a list of sample programs written in various languages.
Description
Languages like python have built-in utilities or functions for working with fractions. Many of these fractions functions follow a similar pattern across programming languages: takes a numerator and a denomenator as an attribute. Perform basic arithmatic and relational operations with operator overloading.
Requirements
In general, a fractions library should perform the following:
- Perform arithmatic operation like multiplications, addition etc.
- Give output for relational operations like >=, >, == etc.
More specifically, begin with creating object instance of fraction class with two attributes: numerator and denomenator.Using operator overloading feature of langauge implement basic arithmatic and relational operaions.
For instance ./fraction-math "6/2" "+" "1/4" would output 13/4
In addition, there should be some error handling for situations where the user doesn't supply any input.
Testing
Some tests for your program are:
| Description | Input | Output |
|---|---|---|
| No Input | "Usage: ./fraction-math operand1 operator operand2" | |
| Empty Input | "" | "Usage: ./fraction-math operand1 operator operand2" |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 + 4/5 | 22/15 |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 * 4/5 | 8/15 |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 - 4/5 | -2/15 |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 / 4/5 | 5/6 |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 == 4/5 | 0 |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 > 4/5 | 0 |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 < 4/5 | 1 |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 >= 4/5 | 0 |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 <= 4/5 | 1 |
| Sample Input: | 2/3 != 4/5 | 1 |
