> As per the [ongoing discussion on the ML|http://markmail.org/message/vsobmfkcpur7kobm], it might be a good idea to introduce classes/interfaces that represent the concept of ["field"|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_%28mathematics%29].
> A design goal is to provide an API for advanced usage (e.g. algorithm that can be implemented on any "field") while being light-weight for basic usage of classes such as {{Complex}} and {{Fraction}}.
