Release Notes

BigRational builds on the BigInteger introduced in .NET Framework 4 to create an arbitrary-precision rational number type. A rational number is a ratio between two integers, and in this implementation BigIntegers are used for the numerator and denominator.

BigRational.zip contains two solutions: one for the BigRational library and one for a sample command-line application that reads two rationals and an operator and then prints the result.

Documentation for BigRational can be found under the documentation tab or on this documentation page.

The changeset that contains this release is 49321.

Thank you so much for providing this class. I'm writing an RPN Calculator in Silverlight 4, and this class allowed me to easily support a rational number data type. I'd love to see it added to the BCL. FWIW, to get it to compile in SL4, I just had to put #if !SILVERLIGHT directives around the serialization code.
