It seems to me that a maturing language such as Elm requires first-class support for Rational numbers. There is a very solid start in imeckler/ratio <https://github.com/imeckler/ratio> but a couple of things are starting to concern me:
- There is (as yet) no version of this library for 0.18 - I'd like to see support for arithmetic expressions of mixed types (particularly between Ints and Rationals) with unobtrusive syntax. I realise that this is tricky because of the absence of typeclasses, but I'd like to know what people think might eventually be an idiomatic Elm-like way to achieve this. Anyway, I was wondering if it were an appropriate time for elm-community to adopt Rationals. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Elm Discuss" group.
