Apr 6, 2016 at 15:25 comment added Physics_maths OK thanks a lot for all the effort.
Apr 6, 2016 at 15:25 comment added Jason B. will work on it, gotta leave for the day now though
Apr 6, 2016 at 15:24 comment added Physics_maths It would be nice if your code somehow differentiated between a variable name and a number such as 2. So that c/(2b)+1/b would read (c+2)/(2b).
Apr 6, 2016 at 15:23 comment added Jason B. Can you give an example? fractionExpand[2/(1*b) + 2/c + 3/(2 b) + 4/(a b)] seems to work
Apr 6, 2016 at 15:17 comment added Physics_maths Now that I've played around with your code I notice that terms like 1/(2*b) and 1/(1*b) does not get written together. Your solution still answers the original question but perhaps I should've asked a more general question. Is there a simple way to fix this problem?
