Description: This class implements infinite precision fixed-point numbers. 

It doesn''t really do anything too interesting except creating instances, converting, and printing, 

since its superclass Fraction does all the work.

Test: "''123456789012345678901234567890.123456789'' asFixed * 1000000000 = 123456789012345678901234567890123456789"

Notes: 1) The current implementation does not convert arbitrarily-based String representations, 

	  which shouldn''t be too much a problem for financial types.'!

    Description: This class implements infinite precision fixed-point numbers,

    which internally hold exact (fractional) results, but print themself with

    a limited number of digits after the decimal point. 

    These can be used in computation, where rounding errors should not accumulate,

    but only a limited precision is required for the final result.

    (i.e. business applications)

    It doesn't really do anything too interesting except creating instances, 

    converting, and printing, since its superclass Fraction does all the work.

    Test: 

        '123456789012345678901234567890.123456789' asFixedPoint * 1000000000

        -> 123456789012345678901234567890123456789'

    Notes: 1) The current implementation does not convert arbitrarily-based 

              String representations, which shouldn't be too much a problem 

              for financial types.

           2) the implementation is a hack - it has not been optimized for speed

              in particular.

    Mixed mode arithmetic:

        fix op fix       -> fix, scale is max. of operands

        fix op fraction  -> fix; scale is fix's scale

        fix op integer   -> fix; scale is fix's scale

        fix op float     -> float
