Subject: [boost] Boost.Rational: improve operator+= and operator-= for param_type
From: Morwenn Ed (morwenn29_at_[hidden])

It is possible to provide an implementation of operator+=(param_type)
and operator-=(param_type) for the rational class that could be more
efficient than the current one:
template <typename IntType>
inline rational<IntType>&
rational<IntType>::operator+= (param_type i)
{
num += i * den;
return *this;
}The operation should never denormalize the fraction. Actually,
the same optimization is already used in operator++ and operator--. It
allows not to convert the param_type into a rational before adding it.
Morwenn.
