Suggestion: Add "fraction" keyword to README or crates.io entry #57

Closed nyanpasu64 closed 5 years ago

nyanpasu64 commented 5 years ago

I was looking for a fraction package, and found the less-popular fraction crate before someone suggested this one. I noticed that the README of num and num-rational, and their crates.io pages, lack the word "fraction", making it hard for me (and whoever's looking for a fraction library) to find. Is it a good idea to add the word "fraction" to num or num-rational, as a keyword?

Context: Python calls it https://docs.python.org/3/library/fractions.html fractions.Fraction. Boost calls it rational. But I have more prior experience with Python and its Fraction class.

That sounds fine -- would you like to send a pull request? Maybe add both "fraction" and "rational".
