0.2614 2018-04-17

 * Fix bug in bpow() (CPAN RT #124002). Add tests to verify fix.

 * Fix bug in is_one(). The code $x->is_one("-") returned false when $x was -1
   and true when $x was 1. Add tests to verify fix.

 * Improve bsqrt() so it returns the exact result when possible.

 * Fix documentation errors.

 * The tests now require Test::More version 0.88 or newer.

 * Add test files t/release-portability.t, t/release-test-version.t, and
   t/release-cpan-changes.t.

 * Update TODO file.

 * Prefer as_int() to as_number(), since what is does is return an integer.

 * Expand tabs to spaces and clean up whitepace.

 * Convert test file t/02pod.t to t/release-pod.t and t/03podcov.t to
   t/release-pod-coverage.t.

 * Reformat CHANGES to match the specification in CPAN::Changes::Spec and
   CPAN::Meta::Spec.

 * Better testing of NaN and Inf trapping.

 * Use $class->config("xyz") rather than $class->config()->{xyz}.

 * Add more tests of is_inf() to catch bugs like the one that was in is_one().
   Specifically, make sure we test is_inf() with and without a sign argument.

 * Use $LIB for the math backend library class.

 * Reformat test data in t/bigratpm.inc.

 * Import carp() and croak() from Carp.

 * Make tests pass when '.' is not in @INC.

 * Remove t/bigroot.t and t/biglog.t which didn't test Math::BigRat at all.

0.2613 2017-06-16 pjacklam

 * Fix problem with second operand being changed in multiplication (CPAN RT
   #121139).

0.2612 2017-03-01 pjacklam

 * Improve the logic in blog() to determine how to call objectify(). The old,
   simpler logic didn't handle an undefined base correctly.

 * Fix bexp() which was objectifying one argument too many.

 * Don't quote the version number of a use'd module.

0.2611 2016-12-13 pjacklam

 * Add more logic to Makefile.PL regarding INSTALLDIRS (CPAN RT #119199
   and #119225).

0.2610 2016-12-11 pjacklam

 * Fix Makefile.PL so that this module installs over the core version.

0.2609 2016-12-03 pjacklam

 * Use ExtUtils::MakeMaker rather than Module::Install in Makefile.PL

 * Remove INSTALL file. The information is in the README file.

 * Inform in the BUGS file that the file may not be up to date.

 * Inform in the TODO file that the file may not be up to date.

 * Update AUTHOR information in Math/BigRat.pm.

 * Remove author information in LICENSE file.

 * Update README file.

 * Minor POD reformatting in lib/Math/BigRat.pm.

0.260805 2016-11-15 pjacklam

 * Standardize on using $LIB for the variable holding the class of the backend
   library.

 * Improve bmul() by doing _gcd() twice on smaller numbers rather than once on
   larger numbers.

0.260804 2016-04-25 pjacklam

 * Revert the change to the blsft() and brsft() methods, which truncated the
   input (and output) to integers. However, now convert the base to an object
   only when the base isn't an object already. Also return NaN if any of the
   three operands is a NaN.

 * Overloaded 'int' should not modify it's argument.

 * The first output argument from objectify() is the class name, so use the
   variable name $class, not $self.

 * In Makefile.PL, change "build_requires 'Test::More' => 0.47" to
   "test_requires 'Test::More' => 0.47". Test::More is only needed for testing,
   not for building.

0.260803 2016-04-22 pjacklam

 * Add methods bnan(), binf(), bzero(), and bone(). The old code was based on
   an undocumented behaviour where the superclass made assumptions about the
   subclass.

 * Fix tests where ok() was used incorrectly, like ok($got, $expected).

 * Remove "require Carp", since we have "use Carp" in the heading.

 * Completly rewrite new(). It was buggy and hard to maintain.

 * Add more descriptions to tests.

 * Rename blog-mbr.t to author-blog-mbr.t.

 * Simplify bsqrt() and blog(). Don't assume we know the internals of
   Math::BigFloat objects.

 * Change bmodpow() and bmodinv() so they handle all input arguments.
   Non-integers are truncated to integers.

 * Change internals of bnok().

 * as_float() and numify() should not make assumptions about the internals of
   Math::BigFloat objects.

 * Wrap long lines.

 * Fix typo in POD ("conversation" -> "conversion").

 * Make internal functions _new_from_float() and _new_from_int() redundant and
   remove them. They make assumtions about the internals of Math::BigFloat
   objects and Math::BigInt objects, respectively.

 * Make internal function _as_float() redundant and remove it.

 * Add methods band(), bior(), bxor(), and bnot().

0.260802 2015-12-28 pjacklam

 * Fix blog(). The handling of inf and NaN was broken. It also returned
   incorrect result in several cases, especially when both the operand and the
   base were both integers. In some cases, the correct result was returned,
   but the operand was not set to this value. An undefined base (indicating
   that Euler's number e should be used) was not handled correctly.

 * Update author information in Makefile.PL.

 * Add tests for log() in t/bigratpm.inc as well as templates for the other
   overloaded functions exp, sin, cos, atan2, int, abs, and sqrt.

 * Update number of tests in t/bigratpm.t.

 * Add test file t/blog-mbr.t.

 * Reformat tests and add comments/descriptions to them.

 * Accept both "Inf" and "Infinity", ignoring letter case, and letting the
   sign be optional. This matches the current behaviour of core Perl.

 * Internal clean-up of the copy() method.

 * Remove all occurences of "require Carp", since we "use Carp".

 * Reformat some of the code to make the code more readable (for me, at least)
   and more in accordance with the guidelines in the "perlstyle" man page.

 * Correct some errors in the comments in the code.

 * Use "our ..." rather than "use vars ...".

 * Rename variables so they have more descriptive names and are more in
   accordance with the Math-BigInt distribution.

 * Remove unused variables.

 * Use "use lib 't'" rather than "unshift @INC, 't'".

 * Include "use strict" and "use warnings" in all files.

0.260801 2015-09-14 pjacklam

 * Added support for bdiv() in list context. Added corresponding tests.

 * Changed bmod() so the result corresponds to Perl's % operator, as well as
   the second output argument of bdiv() in list contest. Modified tests
   correspondingly. Now the behaviour of bmod() is consistent between
   Math::BigInt, Math::BigFloat, and Math::BigRat.

 * Clearer POD for the bdiv() and bmod() methods.

 * Display more information about loaded modules.

0.2608 2015-08-28 pjacklam

  * Wrap long lines.

  * Increment version number. (Sync with blead.)

0.2607 2015-08-28 pjacklam

  * Add changes from v0.2602 to v0.2606.

  * Increment version number. (Sync with blead.)

  * Update bundled version of Module::Install from v1.08 to v1.16.

0.2606 2014-04-03 pjacklam

  * Add ref to https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Dist/Display.html?Name=Math-BigRat

  * Misc. updates.

  * Update bundled version of Module::Install from v1.00 to v1.08.

  * Fix spelling errors.

  * Avoid negative zero.

  * Various POD corrections.

  * Add refereces to CPAN testers, CPAN RT etc.

  * Test to avoid negative zero.

0.2602 2011-02-13 pjacklam (1000 tests)

 * Fix spelling errors (Peter John Acklam).

 * Include latest versions test scripts shared with the Math::BigInt
   distribution (Peter John Acklam).

 * Add 00sig.t for testing the SIGNATURE file, 01load.t for explicitly
   testing module loading and showing version information useful for
   debugging (Peter John Acklam).

 * Replace pod.t and pod_cov.t by 02pod.t as a generic script for testing
   POD syntax, and 03podcov.t as a more generic script for testing POD
   coverage (Peter John Acklam).

0.26 2010-09-15 rafl 975 tests

 * require Math::BigInt v1.74

 * streamline copy()

 * inline is_zero() into bneg(), making it about 50% faster

0.13 2004-10-22 Tels 892 tests

 * fixed digit(): it never worked due to dropping the second parameter

 * fixed a bug in brsft() when passing arguments (2 vs. 3 in objectify)

 * use Math::BigInt->config('lib') for parts instead of Math::BigInt
   + This makes everything go about 2..4 times faster :)
   + And it saves memory (408 vs. 807 bytes for a simple number)

 * _as_float() is about 6 times as fast for integers (e.g. 123/1 vs. 2/3)

 * denominator() returns 1 for +inf and -inf (+inf/1, -inf/1) instead of +-inf

 * when using "lib => GMP;", certain things never worked:
   + sqrt() was not possible
   + new("2.3") did not work
   + new("12.3e-2") did not work

0.12 2004-02-15 Tels 863 tests

 * fixed bug in is_one() (segfault under v.5.6.x)

   still fail)

 * added AUTOLOAD to load fxxx() stubs (for BigFloat compatibility tests)

 * $IMPORT for require and AUTOLOAD

 * added as_bin(), as_hex() which work for integers, NaN, and +-inf

0.11 2004-01-07 Tels 859 tests

 * require Exporter vs. use it

 * more tests for bacmp(), bnorm()

 * fixed bug in bacmp() with ($x,[+-]inf) (Thanx to William T. Morgan!)

 * fixed bug in new("+-inf/X") (e.g. "-inf/5" resulted in "inf", not "-inf")

 * delete _a and _p on _d and _n, reduces size of a BigRat object from
   887 bytes to 767 bytes on a x86 32 bit system. This also makes some
   operations slightly (single-digit percentages) faster.

 * bacmp() is about 20% faster

 * bcmp() is:
   * about 4 times faster if sign($x) != sign($y)
   * about 20% faster if sign($x) == sign($y)

 * added broot(), bmodinv(), bmodpow(), blog() so that their equivalent of:
    # perl -MMath::BigRat=:constant -le '$a = 2.0 ** 32; print $a->broot(4)'
     Can't call method "copy" on an undefined value at BigFloat.pm line 1442.
   works now for integer arguments and inf/NaN, at least.

 * doc: rationales => rational numbers

0.10 2003-07-06 Tels 751 tests (released on 2003-08-13)

 * one more die => croak conversion

 * fix inf/NAN handling in new()

 * fix bsqrt(3/4) and similiar cases failing with some obscure error, this was
   a simple typo ({_n} vs. {_m}). Added tests for that.

 * support for :trap_nan/:trap_inf

 * doc for config()

 * implement trapping of creation of NaN/inf/-inf

 * as_number() forgot to disable $upgrade, resulting in BigRat again when
   run under -Mbigrat -- thanx to Ian Phillips.

 * fixed a bug in new() that failed with
    Math::BigRat->new(Math::BigInt::Lite->new(123));

 * fixed new() to work better under
    use Math::BigRat with => 'Math::BigInt::Lite';

 * add a test for "require Math::BigRat; $x = Math::BigRat->new(123); $x++;"
   (it already works since we "use Math::BigFloat;"

 * require Carp; Carp::croak () instead of simple die()

 * implemented bmod() - Thanx Ian Phillips.

 * bsqrt() now returns a big rationale - Ian again

 * tests for bmod(), as_number(), bsqrt() and some NaN cases

 * bfloor()/bceil() broke under use bigrat; due to missing upgrade-disabling

0.09 2002-08-14 Tels

 * added a numify() so that $array[Math::BigRat->new('17/8')] works

0.07 2002-06-04 Tels

 * bfac() now works for integers (x/1), and returns $x->bnan() instead of
   Math::BigRat->bnan() (modify in-place)

 * bpow() faster for x/1 ** y/1 and x/z ** y/1 cases (some of the speedups are
   two-digit factors :) - also some bugfixes

 * removed some (all of them commented out) debug prints to reduce footprint

 * shortened testfile bigrat.t

 * some hardcoded 'Math::BigInt' replaced with '$MBI'

 * parts('-3/1') would return (3,1) instead of (-3,1)

 * parts() did not work for NaN, +inf, -inf

 * numerator()/denominator() did not work for inf,-inf,NaN

 * new('1.2.2') was valid (resulted in 12/10 due to bug in BigFloat)

 * new() for some cases left internal state not as 0/0 for NaN, inf, -inf etc

 * binc()/bdec() were missing entirely

0.06 2002-05-23 Tels

0.04 2002-03-19 Tels

 * bcmp/bacmp/as_number/bfloor/bceil work now

 * bsqrt() is better now

 * t/Math/BigInt/Test.pm is fixed now and makes a much better figure
   (formerly almost all of the 1500 tests in bigfltrt.inc would fail. Now we
   fail "only" 868 of 2014 tests, and most of them since the test dies early.

 * added stubs for round, bfround, bround and certain others

0.03 2002-02-25 Tels (early morning hours)
