Compare with 'fracout' posted a year ago ...
1. Output to string
2. Rounding
3. Smaller (165 bytes vs. 248 for short&sweet)
4. No dependency on mantissa fitting a double number
fracout:
-1e 3e f/ 15 (f.) cr type
-0.333333333333333
short&sweet:
-1e 3e f/ (f.) cr type
-0.00000214748365
5. No dependency on separate f.p stack
6. Optional comma'd output
Fracout is king, long live fracout!
