Andrew Brampton created MATH-1083:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Fraction - Allow zero denominator if numerator is also
zero
Key: MATH-1083
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1083
Project: Commons Math
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 3.1
Reporter: Andrew Brampton
Priority: Minor
The Fraction constructor rejects a denominator of zero. However, while trying
to parse some Strings generated by another program, I encountered a fraction
"0/0". I would say that's ambigous as to if that's valid, but some people would
agree the answer is zero.
So, would it be possible to allow a zero denominator if the numerator is also
zero. I'd be happy to provide a patch.
