Displays a prompt on the Program I/O screen
for each variable in the argument list, using
the prompt
var1?
. Stores the entered

propFrac(

⇒
expression
propFrac(
rational_number
)
returns
rational_number
as the sum of an integer and
a fraction having the same sign and a greater
denominator magnitude than numerator
magnitude.
propFrac(4/3) ¸
1 + 1/3
propFrac(л 4/3) ¸

propFrac(
rational_expression,var
)
returns the
sum of proper ratios and a polynomial with
respect to
var
. The degree of
var
in the
denominator exceeds the degree of
var
in the
numerator in each proper ratio. Similar
powers of
var
are collected. The terms and
their factors are sorted with
var
as the main
variable.
If
var
is omitted, a proper fraction expansion
is done with respect to the most main
variable. The coefficients of the polynomial
part are then made proper with respect to
their most main variable first and so on.
For rational expressions,
propFrac()
is a
faster but less extreme alternative to
expand()
.
