Gilles resolved MATH-1354.
--------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Do

Moved to "Commons Numbers" project.

> Users of BigFraction might also be working with BigDecimal.  Here's a simple 
> way to convert BigDecimal to BigFraction:
> {code}
>     public static BigFraction bigDecimalToBigFraction(BigDecimal bd) {
>         int scale = bd.scale();
>         // If scale >= 0 then the value is bd.unscaledValue() / 10^scale
>         if(scale >= 0)
>             return new BigFraction(bd.unscaledValue(), 
> BigInteger.TEN.pow(scale));
>         // If scale < 0 then the value is bd.unscaledValue() * 10^-scale
>         return new 
> BigFraction(bd.unscaledValue().multiply(BigInteger.TEN.pow(-scale)));
>     }
> {code}
> It might be nice to have this incorporated into the BigFraction class as a 
> constructor.
