Description: ------------ Hello, First of all great package, looking forward to use it. A method to make a Math_Fraction object from an x/y string representation would be nice. I've made an implementation, feel free to use/change/dtich it ;) Reproduce code: --------------- /** * Returns a PEAR:Math_Fraction object from a x/y string form * * @static * @param string string representation of fraction to make i.e., 2/3 * @return Math_Fraction object on success, PEAR error object on error * @access public */ function makeFraction($frac) { @list($num, $den) = explode('/', $frac); if (!$den) { $den = '1'; } return new Math_Fraction($num, $den); }

Hi Louis, I will add that functionality in the next release - I want to include there also some basic documentation and unit tests. Maybe it will be added as a method in the static Math_FractionOp class, but I will also try to cover it in the Math_Fraction constructor - as is the current situation with the floatToFraction() method. Thank you!

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been fixed in the latest released version of the package, which you can download at http://pear.php.net/get/Math_Fraction
