Square root of a Fraction?

[MadsKirkFoged]

Have a Square root function for a Fraction ever been on the table?
I need it from time to time.

Im guessing that it needs to be done in an iterative process and it might not be a easy as it sounds.
I could start working on it for this package if it would be accepted?

Hi,

The reason there is no square-root function is simple: "I haven't needed it before". I think this feature would be a good addition to Fractions.

I (hope that I) have made the data type as efficient and fast as possible. That's why there are two methods to convert double -> Fraction. Looking at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methods_of_computing_square_roots I think the 'Heron' variant seems to be the most promising. Guess it would require some kind of 'max number of iterations' (precision) to prevent infinite loops.

Sounds good that there is a simple reason for it not being there!

If you want to create it yourself that will be fine by me :-)
else I might take a look at it at a later time in the future.

As I said earlier, I do not need it. Go ahead :-)
