# = mathn
#
# mathn is a library for changing the way Ruby does math.  If you need
# more precise rounding with multiple division or exponentiation
# operations, then mathn is the right tool.
#
# Without mathn:
#
#   3 / 2 => 1 # Integer
#
# With mathn:
#
#   3 / 2 => 3/2 # Rational
#
# mathn features late rounding and lacks truncation of intermediate results:
#
# Without mathn:
#
#   20 / 9 * 3 * 14 / 7 * 3 / 2 # => 18
#
# With mathn:
#
#   20 / 9 * 3 * 14 / 7 * 3 / 2 # => 20
#
#
# When you require 'mathn', the libraries for Prime, CMath, Matrix and Vector
# are also loaded.
