RationalFunctionApproximation.jl: Rational Approximation On Discrete and Continuous Domains

Unlike polynomials, rational functions can represent functions having poles or branch cuts with root-exponential convergence and no Runge phenomenon. Recent developments of the AAA and greedy Thiele algorithms have sparked renewed interest in computational rational approximation. The $\mathsf{\text{RationalFunctionApproximation}}$ package supplies the fastest known implementations of these methods and the only arbitrary-precision ones. Combined with the $\mathsf{\text{ComplexRegions}}$ package, it can produce compact and accurate representations of a huge variety of functions over intervals, circles, or other domains in the complex plane.
