Negative rational numbers

Should negative rational numbers be displayed with the negative sign in front

-(1/4)

or in the numerator

(-1)/4?

Discuss.

In front, of course.

In front.

In particular, 2/3 + -3x/4 should simplify when numberspreserveorder is used to 2/3 - 3x/4.

Agreed. (“Strongly agree,” maybe, because I couldn’t add a post of less than 10 characters. :slight_smile: )

New convention where minus signs are in front of fractions in the newly released version 0.7.11.
