Comparison Functions
====================

 - Function: int mpq_cmp (mpq_t OP1, mpq_t OP2)
     Compare OP1 and OP2.  Return a positive value if OP1 > OP2, zero
     if OP1 = OP2, and a negative value if OP1 < OP2.

     To determine if two rationals are equal, `mpq_equal' is faster than
     `mpq_cmp'.

 - Macro: int mpq_cmp_ui (mpq_t OP1, unsigned long int NUM2, unsigned
          long int DEN2)
     Compare OP1 and NUM2/DEN2.  Return a positive value if OP1 >
     NUM2/DEN2, zero if OP1 = NUM2/DEN2, and a negative value if OP1 <
     NUM2/DEN2.

     This routine allows that NUM2 and DEN2 have common factors.

     This function is actually implemented as a macro.  It evaluates its
     arguments multiple times.

 - Macro: int mpq_sgn (mpq_t OP)
     Return +1 if OP > 0, 0 if OP = 0, and -1 if OP < 0.

     This function is actually implemented as a macro.  It evaluates its
     arguments multiple times.

 - Function: int mpq_equal (mpq_t OP1, mpq_t OP2)
     Return non-zero if OP1 and OP2 are equal, zero if they are
     non-equal.  Although `mpq_cmp' can be used for the same purpose,
     this function is much faster.
