MixedFraction class

Dart representation of a 'mixed fraction', which is made up by the whole part and a proper fraction. A proper fraction is a fraction in which the relation numerator <= denominator is true.

There's the possibility to create an instance of MixedFraction either by using one of the constructors or the extension methods on num and String.

MixedFraction(
  whole: 5,
  numerator: 2,
  denominator: 3,
);
MixedFraction.fromDouble(1.5);
MixedFraction.fromString("1 1/2");

There also are extension methods to quickly build Fraction objects from primitive types:

1.5.toMixedFraction();
"1 1/2".toMixedFraction();

If the string doesn't represent a valid fraction, a MixedFractionException is thrown.

Inheritance

Constructors

MixedFraction({required int whole, required int numerator, required int denominator})
Creates an instance of a mixed fraction.
factory
MixedFraction.fromDouble(double value, {double precision = 1.0e-12})
Tries to give a fractional representation of a double according with the given precision. This implementation takes inspiration from the continued fraction algorithm.
factory
MixedFraction.fromFraction(Fraction fraction)
Creates an instance of a mixed fraction.
factory
MixedFraction.fromString(String value)
Creates an instance of a mixed fraction. The input string must be in the form 'a b/c' with exactly one space between the whole part and the fraction.
