BigFraction.doubleValue() returns Double.NaN for large numerators or
denominators
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MATH-744
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-744
Project: Commons Math
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.2
Reporter: Thundre
Attachments: site.patch
The current implementation of doubleValue() divides numerator.doubleValue() /
denominator.doubleValue(). BigInteger.doubleValue() fails for any number
greater than Double.MAX_VALUE. So if the user has 308-digit numerator or
denominator, the resulting quotient fails, even in cases where the result would
be well inside Double's range.
I have a patch to fix it, if I can figure out how to attach it here I will.
