22.1.3.1.2 Printing Ratios</H2> <P>
|
|
<A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_r.htm#ratio"><I>Ratios</I></A> are printed as follows: the absolute value of the numerator is printed, as for an <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_i.htm#integer"><I>integer</I></A>; then a <TT>/</TT>; then the denominator. The numerator and denominator are both printed in the radix specified by the <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_c.htm#current_output_base"><I>current output base</I></A>; they are obtained as if by <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_numera.htm#numerator"><B>numerator</B></A> and <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="f_numera.htm#denominator"><B>denominator</B></A>, and so <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="26_glo_r.htm#ratio"><I>ratios</I></A> are printed in reduced form (lowest terms). If appropriate, a radix specifier can be printed; see <A REL=DEFINITION HREF="v_pr_bas.htm#STprint-radixST"><B>*print-radix*</B></A>. If the ratio is negative, a minus sign is printed before the numerator. <P>
