Abstract
Rational functions have a specific type ratpoly. However, as with polynomials, introducing such objects doesn’t require an explicit type declaration. Rational functions are simply entered by the user with the help of the basic operators +, -, *, ^ and /. Like the type polynom, the type ratpoly isn’t a basic type returned by whattype, but it can be tested for with the help of the function type.
