Not saying anything about it not working does indeed make it seem like you
ignored it :-)  Or did I just miss where you said this? Anyway, no problem,
it can be a mess dealing with a string of commits when there are numerous
things to take care of between each iteration. And it's very easy to burn
out and just back away. Please don't do that!

I did state that you'd need to add overflow handling from the fraction
calculation and handling for negative values, so it was no surprise that
my original sketchy suggestion didn't work as-is.

This last line should of course be *val2 = -*val2;
Sorry.

It just looked really odd with 1000000000LL for all instances, but then
1000000LL only for some. The lack of symmetry bothered me.

To me, it seems as if we either need to support old/small crap with
int being 16-bit, or we don't. If we don't need support for 16-bit,
then we don't need any LL suffix, since 1000000000 fits just fine in
32-bit. If we do need 16-bit support, then we need LL (or something)
all over since neither 1000000 nor 1000000000 fit in 16-bit.

I think the compiler looks at the value of the constant and not the
size of its type when selecting how big values the mul/add/whatever
needs handle. So, adding LL feels like the safe option. Further, I
guesstimate that the runtime cost of adding LL is zero and that the
compile time cost is negligible.

But maybe I'm missing something?

Peter
