FractionField -- the class of all fraction fields

The type FractionField is a member of the class Type. Each object of class FractionField is called a fraction field. Each fraction field is also a member of class EngineRing.

More general types (whose methods may also apply) :

  • EngineRing -- the class of rings handled by the engine
  • Ring -- the class of all rings
  • Type -- the class of all types
  • MutableHashTable -- the class of all mutable hash tables
  • HashTable -- the class of all hash tables
  • Note: there is no way to reduce an element of an arbitrary fraction field to a normal form. In other words, fractions may be equal without displaying the same numerator and denominator.
