Here's a head scratcher for you math fans...
#9
Edit: Guys, this post doesn't have anything to do with my algorithm, It works. It's just an observation of a weird special circumstance of mathematics.

Point being that in decimal to fraction conversion and back is not reversible in this special instance.

.9... = 1 /1 but 1/1 = 1, not .9...

So mathematically is .9... = 1? Really?

Damn shame when math can't even be perfect.
