Double to Fraction.

Hey, I am writing a Fraction class for an assignment. I think I am pretty close to done, however, I am having trouble going about converting a double number into fraction form. Its a requirement for it to be able to be cast from type double to type Fraction. Also if you see any errors or better ways to do some of the code I would appreciate some advice.

I'm not sure if this is the best approach but one method would be to figure out how many digits are after the decimal (.) then , set the numerator equal to something like thisstatic_cast<int>( decimal_value * 10^number_of_digits_after_decimal ); then the numerator denominator would be 10^number_of_digits_after_decimal;

*fixed small typo

**when I put ^ I didn't mean the XOR operator I mean to actually put it to the power of that value.
