 /**
  * Rational number, as used by the TIFF image format.
+ * <p>
+ * The TIFF format specifies two data types for rational numbers based on
+ * a pair of 32-bit integers.  Rational is based on unsigned 32-bit integers
+ * and SRational is based on signed 32-bit integers.  This treatment is
+ * problematic in Java because Java does not support unsigned types.
+ * To address this challenge, this class stores the numerator and divisor
+ * in long (64-bit) integers, applying masks as necessary for the unsigned
+ * type.

>            Priority: Major

> Decoding Lat/Long EXIF data from JPEGs does not work for some values.  I have 
> attached a file where the conversion fails.  I used the 
> getLatitudeAsDegreesNorth and getLongitudeAsDegreesEast methods from the 
> TiffImageMetaData.GPSInfo class.  The values are close, but seemingly off by 
> a few miles.
> I've traced the source and I believe the issue is with how the RationalNumber 
> class uses two 32-bit signed integers for the numerator and denominator.  The 
> definition of a RATIONAL data type uses 32-bit unsigned numbers.  It seems as 
> if the RationalNumber class already expects this as it has a non-public 
> static method called factoryMethod to create a RationalNumber from two 64-bit 
> numbers.
> This error is introduced in the ByteConversions class, specifically the 
> toRational method where it uses the regular RationalNumber constructor and 
> thus ensures any rational numbers that have numerator or denominator greater 
> than the max signed 32-bit value will produce invalid values.
> I am attaching a JPEG that has this problem.  I had to crop it to reduce the 
> size, but the EXIF data was preserved.
> The EXIF GPS data contained in the JPEG is:
> GpsLatitudeRef: "N"
> GpsLatitude: 38, 1, 36, 1, 4120083230, 70000000
> GpsLongitudeRef: "W"
> GpsLongitude: 90, 1, 12, 1, 2379156648, 70000000
> According to the properties of the image (right-clicking on Windows 10), the 
> L/L of the image is:
> Latitude: 38: 36: 58.85833....
> Longitude: 90: 12: 33.98795... (Windows doesn't show E/W)
> These values convert to:
> 38.616349536627
> -90.2094410978095
> When I use the getLatitudeAsDegreesNorth  and getLongitudeAsDegreesEast 
> methods, I get the following values:
> 38.59930601561111
> -90.19239757679365
