  40           The <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">tommath_rational</span></code> back-end
  41           is used via the typedef <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">multiprecision</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">tom_rational</span></code>.
  42           It acts as a thin wrapper around <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">rational</span><span class="special">&lt;</span><span class="identifier">tom_int</span><span class="special">&gt;</span></code> to provide a rational number type that
  43           is a drop-in replacement for the native C++ number types, but with unlimited
  44           precision.
  45         </p>
  46 <p>
  47           The advantage of using this type rather than <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">rational</span><span class="special">&lt;</span><span class="identifier">tom_int</span><span class="special">&gt;</span></code> directly, is that it is expression-template
  48           enabled, greatly reducing the number of temporaries created in complex
  49           expressions.
  50         </p>

  52           There are also non-member functions:

  83               Performance of this type has been found to be pretty poor - this need
  84               further investigation - but it appears that Boost.Rational needs some
  85               improvement in this area.
