Axiom Developers,
In case you didn't get the automatic notice...
I've posted a patch to float.spad.pamphlet at
https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/index.php?group_id=2938
&func=detailpatch&patch_id=2074
to correct Bug #4733 (rounding of negative numbers).
After applying the patch, just re-compile Axiom using
the command
make
in the axiom root directory.
So far I have done only preliminary testing.
Dylan, I let you continue to analyze contfrac.
Thanks.
Cheers,
Bill Page.
