[go-nuts] Rational number to floating point

[Mark Longtin]

Thanks for the responses. It turns out that in the IOS version the "float" 
function is implemented and works as expected- it's just not documented in the 
help file.

[go-nuts] Rational number to floating point

[Mark Longtin]

Hey guys, 

I'm new to Go - through the Ivy app on IOS- so I have a newbie question. 
What's the easiest way to cast or convert a rational number to its floating 
point representation?

EG, looking for something like this:


*float 355/113*3.14159292035

I could do something inelegant like


*floor .5+1e11* 355/113*314159292035

but was hoping there would be a native function for this.

Thanks
