Arithmetic/Rational
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Task

Create a reasonably complete implementation of rational arithmetic in the particular language using the idioms of the language.


Example

Define a new type called frac with binary operator "//" of two integers that returns a structure made up of the numerator and the denominator (as per a rational number).

Further define the appropriate rational unary operators abs and '-', with the binary operators for addition '+', subtraction '-', multiplication '×', division '/', integer division '÷', modulo division, the comparison operators (e.g. '<', '≤', '>', & '≥') and equality operators (e.g. '=' & '≠').

Define standard coercion operators for casting int to frac etc.

If space allows, define standard increment and decrement operators (e.g. '+:=' & '-:=' etc.).

Finally test the operators: Use the new type frac to find all perfect numbers less than 219 by summing the reciprocal of the factors.

The implementation uses solution of the greatest common divisor task. Here is the implementation of the test:

with Ada.Numerics.Elementary_Functions;  use Ada.Numerics.Elementary_Functions;
with Ada.Text_IO;                        use Ada.Text_IO;
with Generic_Rational;

procedure Test_Rational is
   package Integer_Rational is new Generic_Rational (Integer);
   use Integer_Rational;
begin
   for Candidate in 2..2**15 loop
      declare
         Sum  : Rational := 1 / Candidate;
      begin
         for Divisor in 2..Integer (Sqrt (Float (Candidate))) loop
            if Candidate mod Divisor = 0 then -- Factor is a divisor of Candidate
               Sum := Sum + One / Divisor + Rational'(Divisor / Candidate);
            end if;
         end loop;
         if Sum = 1 then
            Put_Line (Integer'Image (Candidate) & " is perfect");
         end if;
      end;
   end loop;
end Test_Rational;

The perfect numbers are searched by summing of the reciprocal of each of the divisors of a candidate except 1. This sum must be 1 for a perfect number.

Output:
 6 is perfect
 28 is perfect
 496 is perfect
 8128 is perfect

C

C does not have overloadable operators. The following implementation does not define all operations so as to keep the example short. Note that the code passes around struct values instead of pointers to keep it simple, a practice normally avoided for efficiency reasons.

	while (n) { t = n; n = m % n; m = t; }
	return m;
}

frac frac_new(fr_int_t num, fr_int_t den)

	frac a;
	if (!den) {

Common Lisp has rational numbers built-in and integrated with all other number types. Common Lisp's number system is not extensible so reimplementing rational arithmetic would require all-new operator names.

Frink

Rational numbers are built into Frink and the numerator and denominator can be arbitrarily-sized. They are automatically simplified and collapsed into integers if necessary. All functions in the language can work with rational numbers. Rational numbers are treated as exact. Rational numbers can exist in complex numbers or intervals.

1/2 + 2/3
// 7/6 (approx. 1.1666666666666667)

1/2 + 1/2
// 1

5/sextillion + 3/quadrillion
// 600001/200000000000000000000 (exactly 3.000005e-15)

8^(1/3)
// 2    (note the exact integer result.)

Go

Go does not have user defined operators. Go does however have a rational number type in the math/big package of the standard library. The big.Rat type supports the operations of the task, although typically with methods rather than operators:

  • Rat.Abs
  • Rat.Neg
  • Rat.Add
  • Rat.Sub
  • Rat.Mul
  • Rat.Quo
  • Rat.Cmp
  • Rat.SetInt

Code here implements the perfect number test described in the task using the standard library.

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "math"
    "math/big"
)

func main() {
    var recip big.Rat
    max := int64(1 << 19)
    for candidate := int64(2); candidate < max; candidate++ {
        sum := big.NewRat(1, candidate)
        max2 := int64(math.Sqrt(float64(candidate)))
        for factor := int64(2); factor <= max2; factor++ {
            if candidate%factor == 0 {
                sum.Add(sum, recip.SetFrac64(1, factor))
                if f2 := candidate / factor; f2 != factor {
                    sum.Add(sum, recip.SetFrac64(1, f2))
                }
            }
        }
        if sum.Denom().Int64() == 1 {
            perfectstring := ""
            if sum.Num().Int64() == 1 {
                perfectstring = "perfect!"
            }
            fmt.Printf("Sum of recipr. factors of %d = %d exactly %s\n",
                candidate, sum.Num().Int64(), perfectstring)
        }
    }
}
Output:
Sum of recipr. factors of 6 = 1 exactly perfect!
Sum of recipr. factors of 28 = 1 exactly perfect!
Sum of recipr. factors of 120 = 2 exactly 
Sum of recipr. factors of 496 = 1 exactly perfect!
Sum of recipr. factors of 672 = 2 exactly 
Sum of recipr. factors of 8128 = 1 exactly perfect!
Sum of recipr. factors of 30240 = 3 exactly 
Sum of recipr. factors of 32760 = 3 exactly 
Sum of recipr. factors of 523776 = 2 exactly 

Groovy

Groovy does not provide any built-in facility for rational arithmetic. However, it does support arithmetic operator overloading. Thus it is not too hard to build a fairly robust, complete, and intuitive rational number class, such as the following:

class Rational extends Number implements Comparable {
    final BigInteger num, denom

    static final Rational ONE = new Rational(1)
    static final Rational ZERO = new Rational(0)

    Rational(BigDecimal decimal) {
        this(
        decimal.scale() < 0 ? decimal.unscaledValue() * 10 ** -decimal.scale() : decimal.unscaledValue(),
        decimal.scale() < 0 ? 1                                                : 10 ** decimal.scale()
        )
    }

    Rational(BigInteger n, BigInteger d = 1) {
        if (!d || n == null) { n/d }
        (num, denom) = reduce(n, d)
    }

    private List reduce(BigInteger n, BigInteger d) {
        BigInteger sign = ((n < 0) ^ (d < 0)) ? -1 : 1
        (n, d) = [n.abs(), d.abs()]
        BigInteger commonFactor = gcd(n, d)

        [n.intdiv(commonFactor) * sign, d.intdiv(commonFactor)]
    }

    Rational toLeastTerms() { reduce(num, denom) as Rational }

    private BigInteger gcd(BigInteger n, BigInteger m) {
        n == 0 ? m : { while(m%n != 0) { (n, m) = [m%n, n] }; n }()
    }

    Rational plus(Rational r) { [num*r.denom + r.num*denom, denom*r.denom] }
    Rational plus(BigInteger n) { [num + n*denom, denom] }
    Rational plus(Number n) { this + ([n] as Rational) }

    Rational next() { [num + denom, denom] }

    Rational minus(Rational r) { [num*r.denom - r.num*denom, denom*r.denom] }
    Rational minus(BigInteger n) { [num - n*denom, denom] }
    Rational minus(Number n) { this - ([n] as Rational) }

    Rational previous() { [num - denom, denom] }

    Rational multiply(Rational r) { [num*r.num, denom*r.denom] }
    Rational multiply(BigInteger n) { [num*n, denom] }
    Rational multiply(Number n) { this * ([n] as Rational) }


    Rational div(Rational r) { new Rational(num*r.denom, denom*r.num) }
    Rational div(BigInteger n) { new Rational(num, denom*n) }
    Rational div(Number n) { this / ([n] as Rational) }

    BigInteger intdiv(BigInteger n) { num.intdiv(denom*n) }

    Rational negative() { [-num, denom] }

    Rational abs() { [num.abs(), denom] }

    Rational reciprocal() { new Rational(denom, num) }

    Rational power(BigInteger n) {
        def (nu, de) = (n < 0 ? [denom, num] : [num, denom])*.power(n.abs())
        new Rational (nu, de)
    }

    boolean asBoolean() { num != 0 }

    BigDecimal toBigDecimal() { (num as BigDecimal)/(denom as BigDecimal) }

    BigInteger toBigInteger() { num.intdiv(denom) }

    Double toDouble() { toBigDecimal().toDouble() }
    double doubleValue() { toDouble() as double }

    Float toFloat() { toBigDecimal().toFloat() }
    float floatValue() { toFloat() as float }

    Integer toInteger() { toBigInteger().toInteger() }
    int intValue() { toInteger() as int }

    Long toLong() { toBigInteger().toLong() }
    long longValue() { toLong() as long }

    Object asType(Class type) {
        switch (type) {
            case this.class:              return this
            case [Boolean, Boolean.TYPE]: return asBoolean()
            case BigDecimal:              return toBigDecimal()
            case BigInteger:              return toBigInteger()
            case [Double, Double.TYPE]:   return toDouble()
            case [Float, Float.TYPE]:     return toFloat()
            case [Integer, Integer.TYPE]: return toInteger()
            case [Long, Long.TYPE]:       return toLong()
            case String:                  return toString()
            default: throw new ClassCastException("Cannot convert from type Rational to type " + type)
        }
    }

    boolean equals(o) { compareTo(o) == 0 }

    int compareTo(o) {
        o instanceof Rational
            ? compareTo(o as Rational)
            : o instanceof Number
                ? compareTo(o as Number)
                : (Double.NaN as int)
    }
    int compareTo(Rational r) { num*r.denom <=> denom*r.num }
    int compareTo(Number n) { num <=> denom*(n as BigInteger) }

    int hashCode() { [num, denom].hashCode() }

    String toString() {
        "${num}//${denom}"
    }
}

The following RationalCategory class allows for modification of regular Number behavior when interacting with Rational.

import org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.DefaultGroovyMethods

class RationalCategory {
    static Rational plus (Number a, Rational b) { ([a] as Rational) + b }
    static Rational minus (Number a, Rational b) { ([a] as Rational) - b }
    static Rational multiply (Number a, Rational b) { ([a] as Rational) * b }
    static Rational div (Number a, Rational b) { ([a] as Rational) / b  }

    static <T> T asType (Number a, Class<T> type) {
        type == Rational \
            ? [a] as Rational
                : DefaultGroovyMethods.asType(a, type)
    }
}

Test Program (mixes the RationalCategory methods into the Number class):

Haskell

Haskell provides a Rational type, which is really an alias for Ratio Integer (Ratio being a polymorphic type implementing rational numbers for any Integral type of numerators and denominators). The fraction is constructed using the % operator.

import Data.Ratio ((%))

-- Prints the first N perfect numbers.
main = do
  let n = 4
  mapM_ print $
    take
      n
      [ candidate
      | candidate <- [2 .. 2 ^ 19] 
      , getSum candidate == 1 ]
  where
    getSum candidate =
      1 % candidate +
      sum
        [ 1 % factor + 1 % (candidate `div` factor)
        | factor <- [2 .. floor (sqrt (fromIntegral candidate))] 
        , candidate `mod` factor == 0 ]

For a sample implementation of Ratio, see the Haskell 98 Report.

Icon and Unicon

The IPL provides support for rational arithmetic

  • The data type is called 'rational' not 'frac'.
  • Use the record constructor 'rational' to create a rational. Sign must be 1 or -1.
  • Neither Icon nor Unicon supports operator overloading. Augmented assignments make little sense w/o this.
  • Procedures include 'negrat' (unary -), 'addrat' (+), 'subrat' (-), 'mpyrat' (*), 'divrat' (modulo /).

Additional procedures are implemented here to complete the task:

  • 'makerat' (make), 'absrat' (abs), 'eqrat' (=), 'nerat' (~=), 'ltrat' (<), 'lerat' (<=), 'gerat' (>=), 'gtrat' (>)
procedure main()
   limit := 2^19

   write("Perfect numbers up to ",limit," (using rational arithmetic):")
   every write(is_perfect(c := 2 to limit))
   write("End of perfect numbers")

   # verify the rest of the implementation

   zero := makerat(0)          # from integer
   half := makerat(0.5)        # from real
   qtr  := makerat("1/4")      # from strings ...
   one  := makerat("1")
   mone := makerat("-1")

   verifyrat("eqrat",zero,zero)
   verifyrat("ltrat",zero,half)
   verifyrat("ltrat",half,zero)
   verifyrat("gtrat",zero,half)
   verifyrat("gtrat",half,zero)
   verifyrat("nerat",zero,half)
   verifyrat("nerat",zero,zero)
   verifyrat("absrat",mone,)

end

procedure is_perfect(c)       #: test for perfect numbers using rational arithmetic
   rsum := rational(1, c, 1)
   every f := 2 to sqrt(c) do 
      if 0 = c % f then 
         rsum := addrat(rsum,addrat(rational(1,f,1),rational(1,integer(c/f),1)))

   record rational(numer, denom, sign)        # rational type

   addrat(r1,r2) # Add rational numbers r1 and r2.
   divrat(r1,r2) # Divide rational numbers r1 and r2.

   mpyrat(r1,r2) # Multiply rational numbers r1 and r2.
   negrat(r)     # Produce negative of rational number r.
   rat2real(r)   # Produce floating-point approximation of r
   rat2str(r)    # Convert the rational number r to its string representation.
   real2rat(v,p) # Convert real to rational with precision p (default 1e-10). Warning: excessive p gives ugly fractions
   reciprat(r)   # Produce the reciprocal of rational number r.
   str2rat(s)    # Convert the string representation (such as "3/2") to a rational number
   subrat(r1,r2) # Subtract rational numbers r1 and r2.

   gcd(i, j)     # returns greatest common divisor of i and j

J

Rational numbers in J may be formed from fixed precision integers by first upgrading them to arbitrary precision integers and then dividing them:

  (x: 3) % (x: -4)
_3r4
   3 %&x: -4
_3r4

Note that the syntax is analogous to the syntax for floating point numbers, but uses r to separate the numerator and denominator instead of e to separate the mantissa and exponent. Thus:

   | _3r4             NB. absolute value
3r4
   -2r5               NB. negation
_2r5
   3r4+2r5            NB. addition
23r20
   3r4-2r5            NB. subtraction
7r20
   3r4*2r5            NB. multiplication
3r10
   3r4%2r5            NB. division
15r8
   3r4 <.@% 2r5       NB. integer division
1
   3r4 (-~ <.)@% 2r5  NB. remainder
_7r8
   3r4 < 2r5          NB. less than
0
   3r4 <: 2r5         NB. less than or equal
0
   3r4 > 2r5          NB. greater than
1
   3r4 >: 2r5         NB. greater than or equal
1
   3r4 = 2r5          NB. equal
0
   3r4 ~: 2r5         NB. not equal
1

You can also coerce numbers directly to rational using x: (or to integer or floating point as appropriate using its inverse)

   x: 3%4
3r4
   x:inv 3%4
0.75

Increment and decrement are also included in the language, but you could just as easily add or subtract 1:

   >: 3r4
7r4
   <: 3r4
_1r4

J does not encourage the use of specialized mutators, but those could also be defined:

mutadd=:adverb define
   (m)=: (".m)+y
)

mutsub=:adverb define
   (m)=: (".m)-y
)

Note that the name whose association is being modified in this fashion needs to be quoted (or you can use an expression to provide the name):

   n=: 3r4
   'n' mutadd 1
7r4
   'n' mutsub 1
3r4
   'n' mutsub 1
_1r4

(Bare words to the immediate left of the assignment operator are implicitly quoted - but this is just syntactic sugar because that is such an overwhelmingly common case.)

That said, note that J's floating point numbers work just fine for the stated problem:

   is_perfect_rational=: 2 = (1 + i.) +/@:%@([ #~ 0 = |) ]

Faster version (but the problem, as stated, is still tremendously inefficient):

factors=: */&>@{@((^ i.@>:)&.>/)@q:~&__
is_perfect_rational=: 2= +/@:%@,@factors

Exhaustive testing would take forever:

   I.is_perfect_rational@"0 i.2^19
6 28 496 8128
   I.is_perfect_rational@x:@"0 i.2^19x
6 28 496 8128

More limited testing takes reasonable amounts of time:

   (#~ is_perfect_rational"0) (* <:@+:) 2^i.10x
6 28 496 8128

jq

Works with: jq

Works with gojq, the Go implementation of jq

In this entry, a jq module for rational arithmetic is first presented. It can be included or imported using jq's "include" or "import" directives. The module includes functions for taking square roots and for converting a rational to a decimal string or decimal string approximation, and is sufficient for the jq solution at Faulhaber's_triangle#jq.

The constructor is named "r" rather than "frac", mainly because "r" is short and handy for what is here more than a simple constructor (it can also be used for normalization and to divide one rational by another), and because name conflicts can easily be resolved using jq's module system.

The other operators for working with rationals also begin with the letter "r":

Comparisons

  • `requal`, `rgreaterthan`, `rgreaterthanOrEqual`, `rlessthan`, `rlessthanOrEqual`

Printing

  • `rpp` for pretty-printing
  • `r_to_decimal` for a decimal string representation

Unary

  • `rabs` for unary `abs`
  • `rfloor` like `floor`
  • `rinv` for unary inverse
  • `rminus` for unary minus
  • `rround` for rounding

Arithmetic

  • `radd` for addition
  • `rminus` for subtraction
  • `rmult` for multiplication
  • `rdiv` for division
  • `rsqrt` for square roots


In the following notes, "Rational" refers to a reduced-form rational represented by a JSON object of the form {n:$n, d:$d} where n signifies the numerator and d the denominator, and $d > 0.

The notation `$p // $q` is also used, and this is the form used for pretty-printing by the filter rpp/0.

All the "r"-prefixed functions defined here are polymorphic in the sense that an integer or rational can be used where a Rational would normally be expected. This may be especially useful in the case of requal/2.

Julia

Julia has native support for rational numbers. Rationals are expressed as m//n, where m and n are integers. In addition to supporting most of the usual mathematical functions in a natural way on rationals, the methods num and den provide the fully reduced numerator and denominator of a rational value.

Works with: Julia version 1.2
using Primes
divisors(n) = foldl((a, (p, e)) -> vcat((a * [p^i for i in 0:e]')...), factor(n), init=[1])

isperfect(n) = sum(1 // d for d in divisors(n)) == 2

lo, hi = 2, 2^19
println("Perfect numbers between ", lo, " and ", hi, ": ", collect(filter(isperfect, lo:hi)))
Output:
Perfect numbers between 2 and 524288: [6, 28, 496, 8128]

Lingo

A new 'frac' data type can be implemented like this:

-- parent script "Frac"
property num
property denom

----------------------------------------
-- @constructor
-- @param {integer} numerator
-- @param {integer} [denominator=1]
----------------------------------------
on new (me, numerator, denominator)
  if voidP(denominator) then denominator = 1
  if denominator=0 then return VOID -- rule out division by zero
  g = me._gcd(numerator, denominator)
  if g<>0 then
    numerator = numerator/g
    denominator = denominator/g
  else
    numerator = 0
    denominator = 1
  end if
  if denominator<0 then
    numerator = -numerator
    denominator = -denominator
  end if
  me.num = numerator
  me.denom = denominator
  return me
end

----------------------------------------
-- Returns string representation "<num>/<denom>"
-- @return {string}
----------------------------------------
on toString (me)
  return me.num&"/"&me.denom
end

----------------------------------------
--
----------------------------------------
on _gcd (me, a, b)
  if a = 0 then return b
  if b = 0 then return a
  if a > b then return me._gcd(b, a mod b)
  return me._gcd(a, b mod a)
end

Lingo does not support overwriting built-in operators, so 'frac'-operators must be implemented as functions:

-- Frac library (movie script)

----------------------------------------
-- Shortcut for creating 'frac' values
-- @param {integer} numerator
-- @param {integer} denominator
-- @return {instance}
----------------------------------------
on frac (numerator, denominator)
  return script("Frac").new(numerator, denominator)
end

----------------------------------------
-- All functions below this comment only support 'fracs', i.e. instances
-- of the Frac Class, as arguments. An integer n is casted to frac via frac(n).
----------------------------------------

-- Optionally supports more than 2 arguments
on fAdd (a, b) -- ...
  res = a
  repeat with i = 2 to the paramCount
    p = param(i)
    num = res.num * p.denom + res.denom * p.num
    denom = res.denom * p.denom
    res = frac(num, denom)
  end repeat
  return res
end

on fSub (a, b)
  return frac(a.num * b.den - a.den * b.num, a.den * b.den)
end

-- Optionally supports more than 2 arguments
on fMul (a, b) -- ...
  res = a
  repeat with i = 2 to the paramCount
    p = param(i)
    res = frac(res.num * p.num, res.denom * p.denom)
  end repeat
  return res
end

on fDiv (a, b)
  return frac(a.num * b.denom, a.denom * b.num)
end

on fAbs (f)
  return frac(abs(f.num), f.denom)
end

on fNeg (f)
  return frac(-f.num, f.denom)
end

on fEQ (a, b)
  diff = fSub(a, b)
  return diff.num=0
end

on fNE (a, b)
  return not fEQ (a, b)
end

on fGT (a, b)
  diff = fSub(a, b)
  return diff.num>0
end

on fLT (a, b)
  diff = fSub(a, b)
  return diff.num<0
end

on fGE (a, b)
  diff = fSub(a, b)
  return diff.num>=0
end

on fLE (a, b)
  diff = fSub(a, b)
  return diff.num<=0
end

put f.toString()
-- "2/3"

-- fractions are normalized on the fly

Maple

Maple has full built-in support for arithmetic with fractions (rational numbers). Fractions are treated like any other number in Maple.

> a := 3 / 5;
                                a := 3/5

> numer( a );
                                   3

> denom( a );
                                   5

However, while you can enter a fraction such as "4/6", it will automatically be reduced so that the numerator and denominator have no common factor:

> b := 4 / 6;
                                b := 2/3

All the standard arithmetic operators work with rational numbers. It is not necessary to call any special routines.

> a + b;
                                   19
                                   --
                                   15

> a * b;
                                  2/5

> a / b;
                                  9/10

> a - b;
                                   -1
                                   --
                                   15

> a + 1;
                                  8/5

> a - 1;
                                  -2/5

Notice that fractions are treated as exact quantities; they are not converted to floats. However, you can get a floating point approximation to any desired accuracy by applying the function evalf to a fraction.

> evalf( 22 / 7 ); # default is 10 digits
                              3.142857143

> evalf[100]( 22 / 7 ); # 100 digits
3.142857142857142857142857142857142857142857142857142857142857142857\

Mathematica / Wolfram Language

Mathematica has full support for fractions built-in. If one divides two exact numbers it will be left as a fraction if it can't be simplified. Comparison, addition, division, product et cetera are built-in:

4/16
3/8  
8/4
4Pi/2
16!/10!
Sqrt[9/16]
Sqrt[3/4]
(23/12)^5
2 + 1/(1 + 1/(3 + 1/4))

1/2+1/3+1/5
8/Pi+Pi/8 //Together
13/17 + 7/31
Sum[1/n,{n,1,100}]      (*summation of 1/1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4+ .........+ 1/99 + 1/100*)

1/2-1/3
a=1/3;a+=1/7

1/4==2/8
1/4>3/8
Pi/E >23/20
1/3!=123/370
Sin[3]/Sin[2]>3/20

Numerator[6/9]
Denominator[6/9]

gives back:

1/4
3/8
2
2 Pi
5765760
3/4
Sqrt[3]/2
6436343 / 248832

31/30
(64+Pi^2) / (8 Pi)
522 / 527
14466636279520351160221518043104131447711 / 2788815009188499086581352357412492142272

As you can see, Mathematica automatically handles fraction as exact things, it doesn't evaluate the fractions to a float. It only does this when either the numerator or the denominator is not exact. I only showed integers above, but Mathematica can handle symbolic fraction in the same and complete way:

c/(2 c)
(b^2 - c^2)/(b - c)  // Cancel
1/2 + b/c // Together

gives back:

1/2
b+c
(2 b+c) / (2 c)

Moreover it does simplification like Sin[x]/Cos[x] => Tan[x]. Division, addition, subtraction, powering and multiplication of a list (of any dimension) is automatically threaded over the elements:

1+2*{1,2,3}^3

gives back:

{3, 17, 55}

To check for perfect numbers in the range 1 to 2^25 we can use:

found={};
CheckPerfect[num_Integer]:=If[Total[1/Divisors[num]]==2,AppendTo[found,num]];
Do[CheckPerfect[i],{i,1,2^25}];
found

gives back:

{6, 28, 496, 8128, 33550336}

Final note; approximations of fractions to any precision can be found using the function N.

Modula-3

[This section is included from a subpage and should be edited there, not here.]

Template:Rational Arithmetic

This implementation implements the task in a module named Frac that exports an opaque type named T, a standard Modula-3 practice. Although the task does not require it, the module also defines the exception ZeroDenominator for occasions when one might attempt division by zero, which includes at initialization. It provides two functions that return rational numbers for 0 and 1.

Unfortunately IMHO Modula-3 eschewed operator overloading, so the arithmetic looks unpleasant.

OCaml

OCaml's Num library implements arbitrary-precision rational numbers:

#load "nums.cma";;
open Num;;

for candidate = 2 to 1 lsl 19 do
  let sum = ref (num_of_int 1 // num_of_int candidate) in
  for factor = 2 to truncate (sqrt (float candidate)) do
    if candidate mod factor = 0 then
      sum := !sum +/ num_of_int 1 // num_of_int factor
                  +/ num_of_int 1 // num_of_int (candidate / factor)
  done;
  if is_integer_num !sum then
    Printf.printf "Sum of recipr. factors of %d = %d exactly %s\n%!"
        candidate (int_of_num !sum) (if int_of_num !sum = 1 then "perfect!" else "")
done;;

Delimited overloading can be used to make the arithmetic expressions more readable:

let () =
  for candidate = 2 to 1 lsl 19 do
    let sum = ref Num.(1 / of_int candidate) in
    for factor = 2 to truncate (sqrt (float candidate)) do
      if candidate mod factor = 0 then
        sum := Num.(!sum + 1 / of_int factor + of_int factor / of_int candidate)
    done;
    if Num.is_integer_num !sum then
      Printf.printf "Sum of recipr. factors of %d = %d exactly %s\n%!"
        candidate Num.(to_int !sum) (if Num.(!sum = 1) then "perfect!" else "")
  done

A type for rational numbers might be implemented like this:

First define the interface, hiding implementation details:

(* interface *)
module type RATIO =
   sig
     type t
     (* construct *)
     val frac : int -> int -> t
     val from_int : int -> t

     (* integer test *)
     val is_int : t -> bool

     (* output *)
     val to_string : t -> string

     (* arithmetic *)
     val cmp : t -> t -> int
     val ( +/ ) : t -> t -> t
     val ( -/ ) : t -> t -> t
     val ( */ ) : t -> t -> t
     val ( // ) : t -> t -> t
   end

then implement the module:

(* implementation conforming to signature *)
module Frac : RATIO =
   struct
      open Big_int

      type t = { num : big_int; den : big_int }
      
      (* short aliases for big_int values and functions *)
      let zero, one = zero_big_int, unit_big_int
      let big, to_int, eq = big_int_of_int, int_of_big_int, eq_big_int
      let (+~), (-~), ( *~) = add_big_int, sub_big_int, mult_big_int
      
      (* helper function *)
      let rec norm ({num=n;den=d} as k) =
         if lt_big_int d zero then
           norm {num=minus_big_int n;den=minus_big_int d}
         else
         let rec hcf a b =
           let q,r = quomod_big_int a b in
           if eq r zero then b else hcf b r in
         let f = hcf n d in
         if eq f one then k else
            let div = div_big_int in
            { num=div n f; den = div d f } (* inefficient *)
      
      (* public functions *)
      let frac a b = norm { num=big a; den=big b }
      
      let from_int a = norm { num=big a; den=one }

      let is_int {num=n; den=d} =
         eq d one ||
         eq (mod_big_int n d) zero
      
      let to_string ({num=n; den=d} as r) =
         let r1 = norm r in
         let str = string_of_big_int in
         if is_int r1 then
            str (r1.num)
         else
            str (r1.num) ^ "/" ^ str (r1.den)
      
      let cmp a b =
         let a1 = norm a and b1 = norm b in
         compare_big_int (a1.num*~b1.den) (b1.num*~a1.den)

      let ( */ ) {num=n1; den=d1} {num=n2; den=d2} =
         norm { num = n1*~n2; den = d1*~d2 }

      let ( // ) {num=n1; den=d1} {num=n2; den=d2} =
         norm { num = n1*~d2; den = d1*~n2 }
      
      let ( +/ ) {num=n1; den=d1} {num=n2; den=d2} =
         norm { num = n1*~d2 +~ n2*~d1; den = d1*~d2 }
      
      let ( -/ ) {num=n1; den=d1} {num=n2; den=d2} =
         norm { num = n1*~d2 -~ n2*~d1; den = d1*~d2 }
   end

Finally the use type defined by the module to perform the perfect number calculation:

(* use the module to calculate perfect numbers *)
let () =
   for i = 2 to 1 lsl 19 do
      let sum = ref (Frac.frac 1 i) in
      for factor = 2 to truncate (sqrt (float i)) do
         if i mod factor = 0 then
            Frac.(
            sum := !sum +/ frac 1 factor +/ frac 1 (i / factor)
            )
      done;
      if Frac.is_int !sum then
         Printf.printf "Sum of reciprocal factors of %d = %s exactly %s\n%!"
           i (Frac.to_string !sum) (if Frac.to_string !sum = "1" then "perfect!" else "")
   done

which produces this output:

Sum of reciprocal factors of 6 = 1 exactly perfect!
Sum of reciprocal factors of 28 = 1 exactly perfect!
Sum of reciprocal factors of 120 = 2 exactly
Sum of reciprocal factors of 496 = 1 exactly perfect!
Sum of reciprocal factors of 672 = 2 exactly
Sum of reciprocal factors of 8128 = 1 exactly perfect!
Sum of reciprocal factors of 30240 = 3 exactly
Sum of reciprocal factors of 32760 = 3 exactly
Sum of reciprocal factors of 523776 = 2 exactly

Ol

Otus Lisp has rational numbers built-in and integrated with all other number types.

(define x 3/7)
(define y 9/11)
(define z -2/5)

; demonstrate builtin functions:

(print "(abs " z ") = " (abs z))
(print "- " z " = " (- z))
(print x " + " y " = " (+ x y))
(print x " - " y " = " (- x y))
(print x " * " y " = " (* x y))
(print x " / " y " = " (/ x y))
(print x " < " y " = " (< x y))
(print x " > " y " = " (> x y))

; introduce new functions:

(define (+:= x) (+ x 1))
(define (-:= x) (- x 1))

(print "+:= " z " = " (+:= z))
(print "-:= " z " = " (-:= z))

; finally, find all perfect numbers less than 2^15:

(lfor-each (lambda (candidate)
      (let ((sum (lfold (lambda (sum factor)
                     (if (= 0 (modulo candidate factor))
                        (+ sum (/ 1 factor) (/ factor candidate))
                        sum))
                  (/ 1 candidate)
                  (liota 2 1 (+ (isqrt candidate) 1)))))
         (if (= 1 (denominator sum))
            (print candidate (if (eq? sum 1) ", perfect" "")))))
   (liota 2 1 (expt 2 15)))
Output:

3/7 + 9/11 = 96/77
3/7 - 9/11 = -30/77

PARI/GP

Pari handles rational arithmetic natively.

for(n=2,1<<19,
  s=0;
  fordiv(n,d,s+=1/d);
  if(s==2,print(n))
)

PascalABC.NET

uses NumLibABC;

const
  max = 1 shl 19;

begin
  for var candidate := 2 to max - 1 do
  begin
    var sum := frc(1, candidate);
    var max2 := candidate.Sqrt.Trunc;
    for var factor := 2 to max2 do
      if (candidate mod factor) = 0 then
        sum += frc(1, factor) + frc(1, candidate div factor);
    if sum = frc(1) then 
      Writeln(candidate, ' is perfect');
  end;
end.

Perl

Perl's Math::BigRat core module implements arbitrary-precision rational numbers. The bigrat pragma can be used to turn on transparent BigRat support:

use bigrat;

foreach my $candidate (2 .. 2**19) {
    my $sum = 1 / $candidate;
    foreach my $factor (2 .. sqrt($candidate)+1) {
        if ($candidate % $factor == 0) {
            $sum += 1 / $factor + 1 / ($candidate / $factor);
        }
    }
    if ($sum->denominator() == 1) {
        print "Sum of recipr. factors of $candidate = $sum exactly ", ($sum == 1 ? "perfect!" : ""), "\n";
    }
}

Phix

Translation of: Tcl

Phix does not support operator overloading (I am strongly opposed to such nonsense), nor does it have a native fraction library, but it might look a bit like this.

Turned out to be slightly slower than native, but worth it for large number support.
See also Bernoulli_numbers for another example of mpqs in action.

Note that power(2,19) took over 270s under mpfr.js, so reduced to power(2,13) on that platform, making it finish in 0.99s

Picat

A naive addition algorithm is used, so the program is slow.

main =>
    foreach (I in 2..2**19, is_perfect(I))
        println(I)
    end.      
               
is_perfect(N) => sum_rationals([$frac(1,D) : D in divisors(N)]) == $frac(2,1).

divisors(N) = [I : I in 1..N, N mod I == 0].

add(frac(A,B), frac(C,D)) = new_fract(A*D+B*C, B*D).

new_fract(A,B) = $frac(Num, Den) =>
    G = gcd(A,B),
    Num = A // G,
    Den = B // G.

sum_rationals([X]) = X.
sum_rationals([X,Y|T]) = sum_rationals([add(X,Y)|T]).

Prolog

Prolog supports rational numbers, where P/Q is written as P rdiv Q.

divisor(N, Div) :-
    Max is floor(sqrt(N)),
    between(1, Max, D),
    divmod(N, D, _, 0),
    (Div = D; Div is N div D, Div =\= D).

divisors(N, Divs) :-
    setof(M, divisor(N, M), Divs).

recip(A, B) :- B is 1 rdiv A.

sumrecip(N, A) :-
    divisors(N, [1 | Ds]),
    maplist(recip, Ds, As),
    sum_list(As, A).

perfect(X) :- sumrecip(X, 1).

main :-
    Limit is 1 << 19,
    forall(
        (between(1, Limit, N), perfect(N)),

Python

Works with: Python version 3.0

Python 3's standard library already implements a Fraction class:

from fractions import Fraction

for candidate in range(2, 2**19):
  sum = Fraction(1, candidate)
  for factor in range(2, int(candidate**0.5)+1):
    if candidate % factor == 0:
      sum += Fraction(1, factor) + Fraction(1, candidate // factor)
  if sum.denominator == 1:
    print("Sum of recipr. factors of %d = %d exactly %s" %
           (candidate, int(sum), "perfect!" if sum == 1 else ""))

It might be implemented like this:

def lcm(a, b):
    return a // gcd(a,b) * b

def gcd(u, v):
    return gcd(v, u%v) if v else abs(u)

class Fraction:
    def __init__(self, numerator, denominator):
        common = gcd(numerator, denominator)
        self.numerator = numerator//common
        self.denominator = denominator//common
    def __add__(self, frac):
        common = lcm(self.denominator, frac.denominator)
        n = common // self.denominator * self.numerator + common // frac.denominator * frac.numerator
        return Fraction(n, common)
    def __sub__(self, frac):
        return self.__add__(-frac)
    def __neg__(self):
        return Fraction(-self.numerator, self.denominator)
    def __abs__(self):
        return Fraction(abs(self.numerator), abs(self.denominator))
    def __mul__(self, frac):
        return Fraction(self.numerator * frac.numerator, self.denominator * frac.denominator)
    def __div__(self, frac):
        return self.__mul__(frac.reciprocal())
    def reciprocal(self):
        return Fraction(self.denominator, self.numerator)
    def __cmp__(self, n):
        return int(float(self) - float(n))
    def __float__(self):
        return float(self.numerator / self.denominator)
    def __int__(self):
        return (self.numerator // self.denominator)

Racket

Racket always had support for exact rational numbers as a native numeric type.

Example:

-> (* 1/7 14)

Raku

(formerly Perl 6)

Works with: rakudo version 2016.08

Raku supports rational arithmetic natively.

(2..2**19).hyper.map: -> $candidate {
    my $sum = 1 / $candidate;
    for 2 .. ceiling(sqrt($candidate)) -> $factor {
        if $candidate %% $factor {
            $sum += 1 / $factor + 1 / ($candidate / $factor);
        }
    }
    if $sum.nude[1] == 1 {
        say "Sum of reciprocal factors of $candidate = $sum exactly", ($sum == 1 ?? ", perfect!" !! ".");
    }
}

Note also that ordinary decimal literals are stored as Rats, so the following loop always stops exactly on 10 despite 0.1 not being exactly representable in floating point:

for 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 ... 10 { .say }

The arithmetic is all done in rationals, which are converted to floating-point just before display so that people don't have to puzzle out what 53/10 means.

(do ((candidate 2 (+ candidate 1))) ((>= candidate (expt 2 19)))
  (let ((sum (/ 1 candidate)))
    (do ((factor 2 (+ factor 1))) ((>= factor (sqrt candidate)))
      (if (= 0 (modulo candidate factor))
          (set! sum (+ sum (/ 1 factor) (/ factor candidate)))))
    (if (= 1 (denominator sum))
        (begin (display candidate) (newline)))))

It might be implemented like this:

Seed7

The library rational.s7i defines the type rational, which supports the required functionality. Rational numbers are based on the type integer. For rational numbers, which are based on integers with unlimited precision, use bigRational, which is defined in the library bigrat.s7i.

$ include "seed7_05.s7i";
  include "rational.s7i";

const func boolean: isPerfect (in integer: candidate) is func
  result
    var boolean: isPerfect is FALSE;
  local
    var integer: divisor is 0;
    var rational: sum is rational.value;
  begin
    sum := 1 / candidate;
    for divisor range 2 to sqrt(candidate) do
      if candidate mod divisor = 0 then
        sum +:= 1 / divisor + 1 / (candidate div divisor);
      end if;
    end for;
    isPerfect := sum = rat(1);
  end func;

const proc: main is func
  local
    var integer: candidate is 0;
  begin
    for candidate range 2 to 2 ** 19 - 1 do
      if isPerfect(candidate) then
        writeln(candidate <& " is perfect");
      end if;
    end for;

Output:
6 is perfect
28 is perfect
496 is perfect
8128 is perfect

    var frac = 0

    n.divisors.each {|d|
        frac += 1/d

TI-89 BASIC

This example is incomplete. Please ensure that it meets all task requirements and remove this message.

While TI-89 BASIC has built-in rational and symbolic arithmetic, it does not have user-defined data types.

Wren

Library: Wren-math
Library: Wren-rat

The latter module already contains support for rational number arithmetic.

import "./math" for Int
import "./rat" for Rat

System.print("The following numbers (less than 2^19) are perfect:")
for (i in 2...(1<<19)) {
    var sum = Rat.new(1, i)
    for (j in Int.properDivisors(i)[1..-1]) sum = sum + Rat.new(1, j)
    if (sum == Rat.one) System.print("  %(i)")
}
Output:
The following numbers (less than 2^19) are perfect:
  6
  28
  496
  8128
