I'll be the first to volunteer an implementation.
I've made the following deviations from your PEP:
* Binary operators with one Rational operand and one float or Decimal
operand will not raise a TypeError, but return a float or Decimal.
* Expressions of the form Decimal op Rational do not work. This is a
bug in the decimal module.
* The constructor only accepts ints and longs. Conversions from float
or Decimal to Rational can be made with the static methods:
- fromExactFloat: exact conversion from float to Rational
- fromExactDecimal: exact conversion from Decimal to Rational
- approxSmallestDenominator: Minimizes the result's denominator,
given a maximum allowed error.
- approxSmallestError: Minimizes the result's error, given a
maximum allowed denominator.
For example,
>>> Rational.fromExactFloat(math.pi)
Rational(884279719003555, 281474976710656)
>>> decimalPi = Decimal("3.141592653589793238462643383")
>>> Rational.fromExactDecimal(decimalPi)
Rational(3141592653589793238462643383, 1000000000000000000000000000)
>>> Rational.approxSmallestDenominator(math.pi, 0.01)
Rational(22, 7)
>>> Rational.approxSmallestDenominator(math.pi, 0.001)
Rational(201, 64)
>>> Rational.approxSmallestDenominator(math.pi, 0.0001)
Rational(333, 106)
>>> Rational.approxSmallestError(math.pi, 10)
Rational(22, 7)
>>> Rational.approxSmallestError(math.pi, 100)
Rational(311, 99)
>>> Rational.approxSmallestError(math.pi, 1000)
Rational(355, 113)
