Synopsis

Fraction type

data Fraction Source

A fraction.

Conversion

fromFactor :: Real real => real -> FractionSource

Converts a factor into its corresponding fraction.

If the factor is not from the interval [0,1], a runtime error occurs.

fromPercentage :: Real real => real -> FractionSource

Converts a percentage into its corresponding fraction.

If the percentage is not from the interval [0,100], a runtime error occurs.

fromNumber :: Real real => (real, real) -> real -> FractionSource

Converts a number into its corresponding fraction regarding a certain interval.

If the lower bound of the interval is equal to or greater than the upper bound or the value is not from the interval, a runtime error occurs.

toFactor :: Fraction -> DoubleSource

Converts a fraction into its corresponding factor.

toPercentage :: Fraction -> DoubleSource

Converts a fraction into its corresponding percentage.

toNumber :: (Double, Double) -> Fraction -> DoubleSource

Converts a fraction into its corresponding number regarding a certain interval.

If the lower bound of the interval is equal to or greater than the upper bound, a runtime error occurs.
