Andrew Brampton closed MATH-1083. --------------------------------- Resolution: Won't Fix > Fraction - Allow zero denominator if numerator is also zero > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MATH-1083 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1083 > Project: Commons Math > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 3.1 > Reporter: Andrew Brampton > Priority: Minor > Labels: Fraction > > The Fraction constructor rejects a denominator of zero. However, while trying > to parse some Strings generated by another program, I encountered a fraction > "0/0". I would say that's ambiguous as to if that's valid, but some people > would agree the answer is zero. > So, would it be possible to allow a zero denominator if the numerator is also > zero. I'd be happy to provide a patch. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
