This is a bug report for perl from [EMAIL PROTECTED], generated with the help of perlbug 1.35 running under perl v5.8.4. ----------------------------------------------------------------- [Please enter your report here] $ perl -MMath::BigRat -lwe 'print Math::BigRat->new("-10/3")->numify' -3.33333333333333 $ perl -MMath::BigRat -lwe 'print Math::BigRat->new("-10/1")->numify' 10 The latter is obviously incorrect. It's only the numify that's broken; the BigRat itself behaves as negative if used in arithmetic. [Please do not change anything below this line] ----------------------------------------------------------------- --- Flags: category=library severity=high --- Site configuration information for perl v5.8.4: Configured by Debian Project at Mon Oct 25 01:52:37 EST 2004.
