     Oh brother...

     Jerry, I was able to duplicate the silly bug in Turbo.  And IT IS
a bug - It DOES NOT do what the book says it ought to do, despite what
all the mathematicians say.

     On the other hand, just for kicks I tried defining my own frac
function and THAT worked per the manual description.

     What I used was the expansion they give in the book for frac on
page 131.  What a pain - why didn't Borland do it that way to begin
with?

     I wonder what Borland's update policy is?  I remember asking them
about that when I ordered the compiler.  Never did get a reply.

     Well, as they say, caveat emptor...
