rational expression

• Defined in the file `sp'.
• Simplifies algebraic numbers contained in numbers, polynomials, and rational expressions by the defining polynomials of root's contained in them.
• If the argument is a number having the denominator, it is rationalized and the result is a polynomial in root's.
• If the argument is a polynomial, each coefficient is simplified.
• If the argument is a rational expression, its denominator and numerator are simplified as a polynomial.
