In general, we want to implement the arithmetic operations so
that mixed-mode operations either call an implementation whose
author knew about the types of both arguments, or convert both
to the nearest built in type and do the operation there. In
Fraction, that means that we define __add__ and __radd__ as:
def __add__(self, other):
# Both types have numerators/denominator attributes,
# so do the operation directly
if isinstance(other, (int, Fraction)):
return Fraction(self.numerator * other.denominator +

There are 5 different cases for a mixed-type addition on
Fraction. I'll refer to all of the above code that doesn't
refer to Fraction, float, or complex as "boilerplate". 'r'
will be an instance of Fraction, which is a subtype of
Rational (r : Fraction <: Rational), and b : B <:
Complex. The first three involve 'r + b':
1. If B <: Fraction, int, float, or complex, we handle
that specially, and all is well.
2. If Fraction falls back to the boilerplate code, and it
were to return a value from __add__, we'd miss the
possibility that B defines a more intelligent __radd__,
so the boilerplate should return NotImplemented from
__add__. In particular, we don't handle Rational
here, even though we could get an exact answer, in case
the other type wants to do something special.
3. If B <: Fraction, Python tries B.__radd__ before
Fraction.__add__. This is ok, because it was
implemented with knowledge of Fraction, so it can
handle those instances before delegating to Real or
Complex.
The next two situations describe 'b + r'. We assume that b
didn't know about Fraction in its implementation, and that it
uses similar boilerplate code:
4. If B <: Rational, then __radd_ converts both to the
builtin rational type (hey look, that's us) and
proceeds.
5. Otherwise, __radd__ tries to find the nearest common
base ABC, and fall back to its builtin type. Since this
class doesn't subclass a concrete type, there's no
implementation to fall back to, so we need to try as
hard as possible to return an actual value, or the user
will get a TypeError.
