> The methods {{add(int)}} and {{subtract(int)}} in the class
> {{org.apache.commons.numbers.fraction.Fraction}} do not take into account the
> risk of an integer overflow. For example, (2^31^ - 1)/2 + 1 = (2^31^ +
> 1)/2, so the numerator overflows an {{int}}, but when calculated with
> {{Fraction.add(int)}}, the method still returns normally.
