<ratio>

Include the standard header <ratio> to define constants and templates that are used to store and manipulate rational numbers at compile time.

#include <ratio>  

ratio Structure

struct ratio { static constexpr intmax_t num; static constexpr intmax_t den; typedef ratio<num, den>
type; };

The ratio Structure defines the static constants num and den such that num / den == N / D and num and den have no common factors. num / den is the value that is represented by the template class. Therefore, type designates the instantiation ratio<N0, D0> for which num == N0 and den == D0.

Specializations

<ratio> also defines specializations of ratio that have the following form.

template <class R1, class R2> struct ratio_specialization

Each specialization takes two template parameters that must also be specializations of ratio. The value of type is determined by an associated logical operation.
