Editing Template:Fraction/doc

{{Documentation subpage}}
{{Uses TemplateStyles|Template:Fraction/styles.css}}
This template builds an alternative form of common fractions. The template takes one, two, or three parameters: the optional integer (may be signed), the optional numerator and the required denominator; in this order. 

Please '''do not''' <code>subst:</code>itute it.

; <code><nowiki>{{fraction|A|B|C}}</nowiki></code> : {{fraction|A|B|C}} (integer, numerator and denominator)
; <code><nowiki>{{fraction|B|C}}</nowiki></code> : {{fraction|B|C}} (numerator and denominator)
; <code><nowiki>{{fraction|C}}</nowiki></code> : {{fraction|C}} (denominator only)
; <code><nowiki>{{fraction}}</nowiki></code> : {{fraction}} (fraction slash only)

== Examples ==
<!--the fractions are separated by commas that are only visible to screen readers because they do not read out the space separators here-->
; Numbers : {{fraction|2}} {{fraction|3}} {{fraction|2|3}} {{fraction|4}} {{fraction|3|4}} {{fraction|5}} {{fraction|2|5}} {{fraction|3|5}} {{fraction|4|5}} {{fraction|6}} {{fraction|5|6}} {{fraction|7}} {{fraction|2|7}} {{fraction|3|7}} {{fraction|4|7}} {{fraction|5|7}} {{fraction|6|7}} {{fraction|8}} {{fraction|3|8}} {{fraction|5|8}} {{fraction|7|8}} {{fraction|16}} {{fraction|3|16}} {{fraction|5|16}} {{fraction|7|16}} {{fraction|9|16}} {{fraction|11|16}} {{fraction|13|16}} {{fraction|15|16}}
; Units : {{fraction|m|s}} {{fraction|km|h}} {{fraction|kg·m|s<sup>2</sup>}} {{fraction|s}} {{fraction|Mbit|s}}

== Notes ==
* <code><nowiki>{{fraction}}</nowiki></code> or <code>&amp;frasl;</code> may be used to print out the fraction slash glyph " &frasl; ".
* For mixed fractions, in some contexts (like link targets) a "+" is generated between the whole number part and fraction part. If this is not desirable, put the whole number part outside the template, and put a [[w:non-breaking space|non-breaking space]] between when the spacing is desirable. For example: "<nowiki>33&amp;nbsp;{{frac|1|3}}</nowiki>".

== Parameters ==
