Description
Hello,
I find illogical returned result from function "Fraction parse(String source,
ParsePostion pos)" (in class ProperFractionFormat of the Fraction Package) of
the Commons Math library. Please see the following code segment for more
details:
"
ProperFractionFormat properFormat = new ProperFractionFormat();
result = null;
String source = "1 -1 / 2";
ParsePosition pos = new ParsePosition(0);
//Test 1 : fail
public void testParseNegative(){
String source = "-1 -2 / 3";
ParsePosition pos = new ParsePosition(0);
Fraction actual = properFormat.parse(source, pos);
assertNull(actual);
}
// Test2: success
public void testParseNegative(){
String source = "-1 -2 / 3";
ParsePosition pos = new ParsePosition(0);
Fraction actual = properFormat.parse(source, pos); // return Fraction 1/3
assertEquals(1, source.getNumerator());
assertEquals(3, source.getDenominator());
}
"
Note: Similarly, when I passed in the following inputs:
input 2: (source = “1 2 / -3”, pos = 0)
input 3: ( source = ” -1 -2 / 3”, pos = 0)
Function "Fraction parse(String, ParsePosition)" returned Fraction 1/3 (means
the result Fraction had numerator = 1 and denominator = 3)for all 3 inputs
above.
I think the function does not handle parsing the numberator/ denominator
properly incase input string provide invalid numerator/denominator.
Thank you!
