Constructor Detail

• Rational

  public Rational(long numerator,
                  long denominator)

  The arguments to this constructor are long in order to represent all possible 32-bit unsigned integers. Parameters greater than 2 ^ 32 - 1 are not meaningful.

  Parameters:

  numerator - numerator of the Rational value

  denominator - denominator of the Rational value

• Rational

  public Rational(int numerator,
                  int denominator)

  The arguments to the int constructor are treated as 32-bit unsigned integers.

  Parameters:

  numerator - numerator of the Rational value

  denominator - denominator of the Rational value

Method Detail

• getNumerator

  public long getNumerator()

  Returns the Numerator property.

• getDenominator

  public long getDenominator()

  Returns the Denominator property.

• toDouble

  public double toDouble()

  Converts to a floating-point value (numerator/denominator). May throw an ArithmeticException.

• toLong

  public long toLong()

  Converts to a long value (numerator/denominator). May throw an ArithmeticException.

• toString

  public String toString()

  Represents the Rational as a String in the form of "numerator/denominator".

  Overrides:

  toString in class Object
