//! Simple numerics.
//!
//! This crate contains arbitrary-sized integer, rational, and complex types.
//!
//! ## Example
//!
//! This example uses the BigRational type and [Newton's method][newt] to
//! approximate a square root to arbitrary precision:
//!
//! ```
//! extern crate num;
//!
//! use num::FromPrimitive;
//! use num::bigint::BigInt;
//! use num::rational::{Ratio, BigRational};
//!
//! fn approx_sqrt(number: u64, iterations: usize) -> BigRational {
//!     let start: Ratio<BigInt> = Ratio::from_integer(FromPrimitive::from_u64(number).unwrap());
//!     let mut approx = start.clone();
//!
//!     for _ in 0..iterations {
//!         approx = (&approx + (&start / &approx)) /
//!             Ratio::from_integer(FromPrimitive::from_u64(2).unwrap());
//!     }
//!
//!     approx
//! }
//!
//! fn main() {
//!     println!("{}", approx_sqrt(10, 4)); // prints 4057691201/1283082416
//! }
//! ```
