Any arithmetic 009 operation (such as addition) involving "NaN" will return "NaN". 010 With respect to comparison operations, such as less-than, "NaN" is 011 considered equal to itself, and larger than all other rationals. 012 <p> 013 Examples of RatNums include "-1/13", "53/7", "4", "NaN", and "0". 014 */ 015 016// ("immutable" is a common term for which "Effective Java" (p. 63) 017// provides the following definition: "An immutatable class is simply 018// a class whose instances cannot be modified.
