| 150 | =head1 NAME |
| 151 | |
| 152 | bigrat - Transparent BigNumber/BigRational support for Perl |
| 153 | |
| 154 | =head1 SYNOPSIS |
| 155 | |
| 156 | use bigrat; |
| 157 | |
| 158 | $x = 2 + 4.5,"\n"; # BigFloat 6.5 |
| 159 | print 1/3 + 1/4,"\n"; # produces 7/12 |
| 160 | |
| 161 | =head1 DESCRIPTION |
| 162 | |
| 163 | All operators (inlcuding basic math operations) are overloaded. Integer and |
| 164 | floating-point constants are created as proper BigInts or BigFloats, |
| 165 | respectively. |
| 166 | |
| 167 | Other than L<bignum>, this module upgrades to Math::BigRat, meaning that |
| 168 | instead of 2.5 you will get 2+1/2 as output. |
| 169 | |
| 170 | =head2 MODULES USED |
| 171 | |
| 172 | C<bigrat> is just a thin wrapper around various modules of the Math::BigInt |
| 173 | family. Think of it as the head of the family, who runs the shop, and orders |
| 174 | the others to do the work. |
| 175 | |
| 176 | The following modules are currently used by bignum: |
| 177 | |
| 178 | Math::BigInt::Lite (for speed, and only if it is loadable) |
| 179 | Math::BigInt |
| 180 | Math::BigFloat |
| 181 | Math::BigRat |
| 182 | |
| 183 | =head2 MATH LIBRARY |
| 184 | |
| 185 | Math with the numbers is done (by default) by a module called |
| 186 | Math::BigInt::Calc. This is equivalent to saying: |
| 187 | |
| 188 | use bigrat lib => 'Calc'; |
| 189 | |
| 190 | You can change this by using: |
| 191 | |
| 192 | use bigrat lib => 'BitVect'; |
| 193 | |
| 194 | The following would first try to find Math::BigInt::Foo, then |
| 195 | Math::BigInt::Bar, and when this also fails, revert to Math::BigInt::Calc: |
| 196 | |
| 197 | use bigrat lib => 'Foo,Math::BigInt::Bar'; |
| 198 | |
| 199 | Please see respective module documentation for further details. |
| 200 | |
| 201 | =head2 SIGN |
| 202 | |
| 203 | The sign is either '+', '-', 'NaN', '+inf' or '-inf' and stored seperately. |
| 204 | |
| 205 | A sign of 'NaN' is used to represent the result when input arguments are not |
| 206 | numbers or as a result of 0/0. '+inf' and '-inf' represent plus respectively |
| 207 | minus infinity. You will get '+inf' when dividing a positive number by 0, and |
| 208 | '-inf' when dividing any negative number by 0. |
| 209 | |
| 210 | =head2 METHODS |
| 211 | |
| 212 | Since all numbers are not objects, you can use all functions that are part of |
| 213 | the BigInt or BigFloat API. It is wise to use only the bxxx() notation, and not |
| 214 | the fxxx() notation, though. This makes you independed on the fact that the |
| 215 | underlying object might morph into a different class than BigFloat. |
| 216 | |
| 217 | =head1 EXAMPLES |
| 218 | |
| 219 | perl -Mbigrat -le 'print sqrt(33)' |
| 220 | perl -Mbigrat -le 'print 2*255' |
| 221 | perl -Mbigrat -le 'print 4.5+2*255' |
| 222 | perl -Mbigrat -le 'print 3/7 + 5/7 + 8/3' |
| 223 | perl -Mbigrat -le 'print 12->is_odd()'; |
