## Fixes#111
> The modulo operator on this calculator gives the result that is different to the most used calculators.
The current `modrate` function is the equivalent of rem(...)/remainder(...), not mod(...)/modulo(...) available in some popular Math apps.
### Description of the changes:
- rename `modrate` in `remrate` to be more accurate.
- add `modrate`, calculating modulo similarly to Matlab, Bing, Google calculator, Maxima, Wolfram Alpha and Microsoft Excel
- Add `RationalMath::Mod` using `modrate` as an alternative to `Rational::operator%` using `remrate`
- Add a helper `SIGN` to retrieve the sign of a `Rational`.
- modify `CalcEngine` to use `modrate` in Normal and Scientific mode and `remrate` in Programmer mode.
### How changes were validated:
- manually and unit tests added
Description of the changes:
Currently Calculator handles strings by defining integers for each type of function that can be performed, this integer will eventually correspond with an index in s_engineStrings which holds the corresponding display string for each function. Some functions such as Sin can have multiple strings (degrees, rads, grads, inverse). Functions like Sin are mapped to another array called "rgUfne" where a new integer is given depending on the output string which will then be given to s_engineStrings. The new integer returned by the "rgUfne" array runs the risk of overlapping with any new functions that may be added in CCommand.h. Furthermore, it is expected that the strings in s_engineStrings and rgUfne are defined in a particular order (not necessarily sequential), otherwise the logic will break. This makes adding new strings for new functions confusing and difficult, since a lot of the logic is not clearly defined.
This PR attempts to make this a bit simpler by changing the s_engineStrings and rgUfne arrays to be unordered_maps instead of arrays. For s_engineStrings the keys will now be strings, allowing the existing logic for indexing to be used by simply converting the number into a string to access the value. This will also allow us to create keys in the future that are not limited to integers but to strings that hold more meaning.
The rgUfne array will also be updated to be a map that will take in an integer and give you the corresponding string that can be passed to s_engineStrings. The UFNE object in the rgUfne array will also be updated to hold all the possible string keys for a function, instead of indexing them on other numbers that may overlap with existing definitions.
Now to add a new string for a new IDC_FOO function, we would just need to add the "FooString" resource keys to the g_sids array and use the updated rgUfne map to link the IDC_FOO value to the corresponding "FooString" resource key. This way the resource key can be a meaningful string, and not an integer that must be in any particular order.
How changes were validated:
Tested each function manually in standard, scientific, and programmer modes.
The conditional m_precedenceOpCount >= 0 was always true because m_precendenceOpCount is an unsigned type. Update the conditional to simply be true and rely on a break statement in the loop. Although this member variable used to be a signed type, in practice, the value was never less than 0.
How changes were validated:
Manual. Unit tests pass locally.
Fixing some nested if() statements and reducing indentation levels.
Making some sections less verbose, e.g:
if (a == 1)
{
b = true;
}
else
{
b = false;
}
↓
b = (a == 1)
Fixed comments that were inconsistent with the style guidelines described in C++ core guidelines and the modern C++/WinRT language projections and removed trailing whitespace.
Inserted a space after the beginning of the comment so the text wasn't touching the // on all occurrences.
Removed all occurrences of trailing whitespace
* Convert Rational::Negate to an operator override
* Convert Rational::Add to + and += operator overrides.
* Convert Rational::Sub to - and -= operator overrides.
* Convert Rational::Div and ::Mul to use /, /=, *, *= operator overrides.
* Convert Rational::Mod to use %= and % operator overrides
* Convert Rational::Rsh and ::Lsh to use >>=, >>, <<=, << operator overrides
* Convert Rational::And, ::Or, ::Xor to use &=, &, |=, |, ^=, ^ operator overrides
* Convert Rational relational functions to operator overrides
* Remove unnecessary precision arguments from Rational class and remove use of explicit Rational constructors in favor of implicit conversions for value types
* Remove unnecessary precision variable from RationalMath operations
* Replace unnecessary Rational::Not with Xor operation
* Remove unnecessary Rational::IsZero() in favor of == 0 comparisons
* Fix rounding issues in ratpak that result from using large precisions.
* Move assignment stmt out of IsCurrentTooBigForTrig
- Separates values from the representation (base/radix) of those values.
- Uses a single base for all values represented as Rationals.
- Rationals are converted to/from a specific base when they are converted to/from strings.
* Converts NumObj* functions to use Rationals. Places new functions under CalcEngine::RationalMath namespace
* Moves functions that correspond to an operator to the Rational class with intent to convert to operators in the future
* Consolidates use of RatPack's NUMBER and RAT data types to Number/Rational classes and RationalMath namespace.
