A fasting person vomited and then swallowed some of his vomit unintentionally; what is the ruling concerning him?

If a fasting person vomits intentionally, their fast is invalidated. However, if vomiting overwhelms them, their fast is not invalidated. Similarly, swallowing vomit does not invalidate the fast if it was unintentional.
