Question

Is there any way to access the denominator in a fraction in Python 2?

For example, I have a variable:

x = fractions.Fraction(4,1)

And I want to access its denominator. How do I do that?

Was it helpful?

Solution 

>>> from fractions import Fraction
>>> a = Fraction(1,2)
>>> a.denominator
2

Additionally Python's help() method can be very useful to determine exactly what methods and properties exist for an object. In the example above you could get a help description for the Fraction object by help(Fraction) or help(a) in an interpreter session.
