Template:Mfrac/doc

This template builds an alternative form of common fractions. It takes one, two or three parameters: the optional integer (may be signed), the optional numerator and the required denominator; in this order.

Sampler

{{mfrac|x|y|z}}	→	$\scriptstyle {x{\frac {y}{z}}}$
{{mfrac||y|z}}	→	$\scriptstyle {\frac {y}{z}}$
{{mfrac|x|y}}	→	$\scriptstyle {\frac {x}{y}}$
{{mfrac|x||z}}	→	$\scriptstyle {x{\frac {}{z}}}$
{{mfrac|x||}}	→	$\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{x}}$
{{mfrac||y|}}	→	$\scriptstyle {\frac {}{y}}$
{{mfrac|||z}}	→	$\scriptstyle {\frac {}{z}}$
{{mfrac||w}}	→	$\scriptstyle {\frac {}{w}}$
{{mfrac|k}}	→	$\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{k}}$
{{mfrac}}	→	${\displaystyle }$

{{mfrac|A|B|C}}

$\scriptstyle {A{\frac {B}{C}}}$ (integer, numerator and denominator)

{{mfrac|A|B}}

$\scriptstyle {\frac {A}{B}}$ (numerator and denominator)

{{mfrac|A}}

$\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{A}}$ (special case: interpolated reciprocal (sfrac compatibility))

{{mfrac||B}}

$\scriptstyle {\frac {}{B}}$ (denominator only)

Examples

A leading 1 to allow for the relative positions compared to a standard character:

1$\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{2}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{3}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {2}{3}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{4}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {3}{4}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{5}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {2}{5}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {3}{5}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {4}{5}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{6}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {5}{6}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{7}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {2}{7}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {3}{7}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {4}{7}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {5}{7}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {6}{7}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{8}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {3}{8}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {5}{8}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {7}{8}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {1}{16}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {3}{16}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {5}{16}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {7}{16}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {9}{16}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {11}{16}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {13}{16}}$ $\scriptstyle {\frac {15}{16}}$
