c8: Adding placeholders for rational and real numbers

2017-01-11 00:00 - 1 min read

With the natural and integer number support being ready it’s time to think about the other types that we’ll want for a first version of the library. Added placeholder files for rational, real2 and real10 numbers.

Real2 will be power-of-2 floating point numbers (as with C++ float and double), whereas real10 will be power-of-10 versions (useful for handling finance problems).
