Some FRACTRAN programs in case we ever have a category for it
The '''Minkowski question-mark function''' converts the continued fraction representation {{math|[a<sub>0</sub>; a<sub>1</sub>, a<sub>2</sub>, a<sub>3</sub>, ...]}} of a number into a binary decimal representation in which the integer part {{math|a<sub>0</sub>}} is unchanged and the {{math|a<sub>1</sub>, a<sub>2</sub>, ...}} become alternating runs of binary zeroes and ones of those lengths. The decimal point takes the place of the first zero.


==A+B==
Thus, {{math|?}}(31/7) = 71/16 because 31/17 has the continued fraction representation {{math|[4;2,3]}} giving the binary expansion {{math|4 + 0.0111<sub>2</sub>}}.


Input a number of the form 2^a 3^b
Among its interesting properties is that it maps roots of quadratic equations, which have repeating continued fractions, to rational numbers, which have repeating binary digits.
<lang fractran>
2/3
</lang>
The output is 2^(a+b)


==Empty program==
The question-mark function is continuous and monotonically increasing, so it has an inverse.


A list of no fractions does nothing, then immediately stops.
* Produce a function for {{math|?(x)}}. Be careful: rational numbers have two possible continued fraction representations- choose the one that will give a binary expansion ending with a 1.
<lang fractran></lang>
* Produce the inverse function {{math|?<sup>-1</sup>(x)}}
* Verify that {{math|?(φ)}} = 5/3, where {{math|φ}} is the Greek golden ratio.
* Verify that {{math|?<sup>-1</sup>(-5/9)}} = (√13 - 7)/6
* Verify that the two functions are inverses of each other by showing that {{math|?<sup>-1</sup>(?(x))}}={{math|x}} and {{math|?(?<sup>-1</sup>(y))}}={{math|y}} for {{math|x, y}} of your choice


==Integer Sequence==
Don't worry about precision error in the last few digits.
Given the number 1 as input the following program will, as its (3n-2)th step, produce the number 2^n.
<lang fractran> 2/3, 9/2, 2/1</lang>


==Logical operations==
==header|FreeBASIC==
It's not so hard to code up all sixteen possible two-input logic gates, so here they are. The input is 2^a 3^b where a,b are zero or one and the output is 5^1 for true and 5^0 for false. Gates that return true when all their inputs are false additionally require the flag 11 to be set as input (ie 2^a*3^b*11)- any FRACTRAN program with the number 1 as input either stops without doing anything or loops forever.

Some FRACTRAN programs in case we ever have a category for it

A+B

Input a number of the form 2^a 3^b <lang fractran> 2/3 </lang> The output is 2^(a+b)

Empty program

A list of no fractions does nothing, then immediately stops. <lang fractran></lang>

Integer Sequence

Given the number 1 as input the following program will, as its (3n-2)th step, produce the number 2^n. <lang fractran> 2/3, 9/2, 2/1</lang>

Logical operations

It's not so hard to code up all sixteen possible two-input logic gates, so here they are. The input is 2^a 3^b where a,b are zero or one and the output is 5^1 for true and 5^0 for false. Gates that return true when all their inputs are false additionally require the flag 11 to be set as input (ie 2^a*3^b*11)- any FRACTRAN program with the number 1 as input either stops without doing anything or loops forever.

<lang fractran> 5/6, 1/2, 1/3 AND gate 5/6, 5/2, 5/3 OR gate 1/22, 5/11 NOT gate (uses 11 as a halt flag, result of 2^a*11 is 5^not(a)) 1/6, 5/2, 5/3 XOR gate 1/66, 5/22, 5/33, 5/11 NAND gate (needs 11 flag) 5/66, 1/22, 1/33, 5/11 NXOR gate (needs flag) 1/66, 1/22, 1/33, 5/11 NOR gate (needs flag)

so much for all the commonly encountered ones, but there's still another eight to go. Most are obscure and of limited utility.

1/2, 1/3 ZERO gate, returns false regardless of its input 1/6, 5/2, 1/3 "A and not B", true only if A is true and B is false 5/2, 1/3 A , returns the state of A regardless of B 1/6, 1/2, 5/3 "B and not A", true only if B is true and A is false 1/2, 5/3 B , returns the state of B regardless of A 1/66, 1/33, 5/11 "A or not B" (needs flag) 1/66, 1/22, 5/11 "B or not A" (needs flag) 5/66, 5/22, 5/33, 5/11 ONE gate, returns true regardless of its input, needs flag

NOT A and NOT B are omitted because the one-input NOT gate is already up there. </lang>

Sort three variables

FRACTRAN's only data type is positive integers. Suppose (a,b,c) are the integers to be sorted. Give the following as input: 2^a 3^b 5^c <lang fractran> 1001/30, 143/6, 143/10, 143/15, 13/2, 13/3, 13/5 </lang> Returns 7^A 11^B 13^C where (A,B,C) are (a,b,c) in ascending order.
