Constructor & Destructor Documentation

GMPRationalElement() [1/5]

GMPRationalElement ( void  )

inline

Default constructor.

This constructor is required to allow field elements to be primitive C++ types. Because constructor does not know what field the element belongs to, it cannot actually construct the element. In this implementation, the constructor it sets _elem_ptr to the null pointer. Initialization of the element is done through the field function init where the field is known.

GMPRationalElement() [2/5]

GMPRationalElement ( const GMPRationalElement &  a )

inline

Copy constructor.

This constructor is required to allow field elements to be primitive C++ types, and to allow field elements to be passed by value into functions. Constructs field element by copying the field element. In this implementation, this means copying the element to which a._elem_ptr points.

Parameters

a	field element.

~GMPRationalElement()

~GMPRationalElement ( )

inline

Destructor.

In this implementation, this destroys element by deleting field element to which _elem_ptr points.

GMPRationalElement() [3/5]

GMPRationalElement ( mpq_t  _rep )

inline

Constructor.

Constructs field element from an mpq_t Not part of the interface. Creates new copy of element object in dynamic memory.

Parameters

_rep	pointer to ElementAbstract

GMPRationalElement() [4/5]

GMPRationalElement ( const integer &  num, const integer &  den  )

inline

Constructor.

Initialize from numerator and denominator

Parameters

num,den

GMPRationalElement() [5/5]

GMPRationalElement ( const integer &  num )

inline

Constructor.

Initalizes from a single integer, (which is assumed to be the numerator, with the denominator being 1)

Parameters

num

Member Function Documentation

operator=()

GMPRationalElement& operator= ( const GMPRationalElement &  a )

inline

Assignment operator.

Assigns element a to element. In this implementation, this is done by copying field element to which _elem_ptr points.

Parameters

a	field element.
