I already know when a fraction is repeating decimals. Here is the function.
public bool IsRepeatingDecimal
{
get
{
if (Numerator % Denominator == 0)
return false;
var primes = MathAlgorithms.Primes(Denominator);
foreach (int n in primes)
{
if (n != 2 && n != 5)
return true;
}
return false;
}
}
Now, I'm trying to get the repeated number. I'm checking this web site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repeating_decimal
public decimal RepeatingDecimal()
{
if (!IsRepeatingDecimal) throw new InvalidOperationException("The fraction is not producing repeating decimals");
int digitsToTake;
switch (Denominator)
{
case 3:
case 9: digitsToTake = 1; break;
case 11: digitsToTake = 2; break;
case 13: digitsToTake = 6; break;
default: digitsToTake = Denominator - 1; break;
}
return MathExtensions.TruncateAt((decimal)Numerator / Denominator, digitsToTake);
}
But I really realized, that some numbers has a partial decimal finite and later infinite. For example: 1/28
Do you know a better way to do this? Or an Algorithm?
