Fraction Processes

[365X92yv]

I'd like to input a fraction, i.e 1/2 +3/4 and get the result of that. Whats the best method for reading the input?

Try using getline into an std::string.

If I read into a getline though, how do I read the operand for the fractions and then how do I read the string?

You just have to parse the string. It's a useful skill :) Iterate through each character and do something different depending on if its a plus or minus sign, and the likes. Also, my advice would be to take your fractions and convert them to decimals so you can easily perform operations with them.
