Heinrich Bohne commented on NUMBERS-123:
----------------------------------------
Sorry for the confusion, the "no" was referring to my perceived need to discuss
this matter further, so if this is the determining factor, then "yes", the
issue can be marked as resolved :)
> "BigFraction(double)" is unnecessary

> Constructor {{BigFraction(double value)}} is only called from the
> {{from(double value)}} method.
> Actually, this constructor is misleading as it is indeed primarily a
> conversion from which appropriate {{numerator}} and {{denominator}} fields
> are computed; those could be set by
> the "direct" constructor {{BigFraction(BigInteger num, BigInteger den)}}.
> Moreover, the private field {{ZERO}} goes through this conversion code
> whereas it could constructed "directly", e.g. using {{of(0)}}. Similarly for
> field {{ONE}}.
