![Task](http://static.miraheze.org/rosettacodewiki/thumb/b/ba/Rcode-button-task-crushed.png/64px-Rcode-button-task-crushed.png)
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
The task is to write a program to transform a decimal number into a fraction in lowest terms.
It is not always possible to do this exactly. For instance, while rational numbers can be converted to decimal representation, some of them need an infinite number of digits to be represented exactly in decimal form. Namely, repeating decimals such as 1/3 = 0.333...
Because of this, the following fractions cannot be obtained (reliably) unless the language has some way of representing repeating decimals:
- 67 / 74 = 0.9(054) = 0.9054054...
- 14 / 27 = 0.(518) = 0.518518...
Acceptable output:
- 0.9054054 → 4527027 / 5000000
- 0.518518 → 259259 / 500000
Finite decimals are of course no problem:
- 0.75 → 3 / 4

Ada
Specification of a procedure Real_To_Rational, which is searching for the best approximation of a real number. The procedure is generic. I.e., you can instantiate it by your favorite "Real" type (Float, Long_Float, ...).
<lang Ada>generic
type Real is digits <>;
procedure Real_To_Rational(R: Real;
Bound: Positive; Nominator: out Integer; Denominator: out Positive);</lang>
The implementation (just brute-force search for the best approximation with Denominator less or equal Bound):
<lang Ada>procedure Real_To_Rational (R: Real;
Bound: Positive; Nominator: out Integer; Denominator: out Positive) is Error: Real; Best: Positive := 1; Best_Error: Real := Real'Last;
begin
if R = 0.0 then Nominator := 0; Denominator := 1; return; elsif R < 0.0 then Real_To_Rational(-R, Bound, Nominator, Denominator); Nominator := - Nominator; return; else for I in 1 .. Bound loop Error := abs(Real(I) * R - Real'Rounding(Real(I) * R)); if Error < Best_Error then Best := I; Best_Error := Error; end if; end loop; end if; Denominator := Best; Nominator := Integer(Real'Rounding(Real(Denominator) * R));
end Real_To_Rational;</lang>
The main program, called "Convert_Decimal_To_Rational", reads reals from the standard input until 0.0. It outputs progressively better rational approximations of the reals, where "progressively better" means a larger Bound for the Denominator:
<lang Ada>with Ada.Text_IO; With Real_To_Rational;
procedure Convert_Decimal_To_Rational is
type My_Real is new Long_Float; -- change this for another "Real" type
package FIO is new Ada.Text_IO.Float_IO(My_Real); procedure R2R is new Real_To_Rational(My_Real);
Nom, Denom: Integer; R: My_Real;
begin
loop Ada.Text_IO.New_Line; FIO.Get(R); FIO.Put(R, Fore => 2, Aft => 9, Exp => 0); exit when R = 0.0; for I in 0 .. 4 loop R2R(R, 10**I, Nom, Denom); Ada.Text_IO.Put(" " & Integer'Image(Nom) & " /" & Integer'Image(Denom)); end loop; end loop;
end Convert_Decimal_To_Rational; </lang>
Finally, the output (reading the input from a file):

This sort of calculation works best in base ten and with an input scheme that recognises a protocol for specifying that the decimal value has a recurring sequence, whereupon the methods taught in school could be employed. Such a protocol often conflicts with presenting a digit sequence with the last digit correctly rounded. Although many early computers worked in base ten, these days a binary base is usual, be it 2, 4, 8, or 16. Alas, five is not a factor of two nor any of its powers, and many decimal fractions, even a brief one such as 0·1, convert to a recurring sequence in binary so for example, 10·15 is in binary 1010·0010011001100110011... However, 203/20 when evaluated in binary floating-point will generate the same binary sequence as 10·15, granted that the compiler does its arithmetic correctly. Nevertheless, such a decimal value is not the value that a binary computer will work with, except for restricted fractions such as 0·5, 0·25, 0·75, and so forth up to the precision of the arithmetic.
Rather than engage in fancy schemes, here are two "brute force" methods. The first simply multiplies the value by a large power of ten, then casts out common factors in P/Q = x*1000000000/100000000. But if the best value for Q involves factors other than two and five, this won't work well. The second method is to jiggle either P or Q upwards depending on whether P/Q is smaller or larger than X, reporting improvements as it goes. Once beyond small numbers there are many small improvements to be found, so only those much better than the previous best are reported. Loosely speaking, the number of digits correct in good values of P/Q should be the sum of the number of digits in P and Q, and more still for happy fits, but a factor of eight suffices to suppress the rabble. Thus for Pi, the famous 22/7 and 355/113 appear as desired. Later pairs use lots more digits without a surprise hit, except for the short decimal sequence which comes out as 314159/100000 that reconstitutes the given decimal fraction exactly. Which is not a good approximation for Pi, and its pairs diverge from those of the more accurate value. In other words, one must assess the precision of the given value and not be distracted by the spurious precision offered by the larger P/Q pairs, so for 3·14159 with six digits, there is little point in going further than 355/113 - with their six digits. Contrariwise, if a P/Q with few digits matches many more digits of the given number, then a source rational number can be suspected. But if given just a few digits, such as 0·518 (or 0·519, when rounded), 13/25 could be just as likely a source number as 14/27 which is further away.
The source uses the MODULE facility of F90 merely to avoid the annoyance of having to declare the type of integer function GCD. The T ("tab") format code is employed to facilitate the alignment of output, given that P/Q is presented with I0 format so that there are no spaces (as in " 22/ 7" for example), the latter being standard in F90 but an extension in earlier Fortrans. <lang Fortran> MODULE PQ !Plays with some integer arithmetic.

Fōrmulæ
Fōrmulæ programs are not textual, visualization/edition of programs is done showing/manipulating structures but not text. Moreover, there can be multiple visual representations of the same program. Even though it is possible to have textual representation —i.e. XML, JSON— they are intended for storage and transfer purposes more than visualization and edition.
Programs in Fōrmulæ are created/edited online in its website, However they run on execution servers. By default remote servers are used, but they are limited in memory and processing power, since they are intended for demonstration and casual use. A local server can be downloaded and installed, it has no limitations (it runs in your own computer). Because of that, example programs can be fully visualized and edited, but some of them will not run if they require a moderate or heavy computation/memory resources, and no local server is being used.
In this page you can see the program(s) related to this task and their results.
Go
Go has no native decimal representation so strings are used as input here. The program parses it into a Go rational number, which automatically reduces. <lang go>package main
import (
"fmt" "math/big"
)
func main() {
for _, d := range []string{"0.9054054", "0.518518", "0.75"} { if r, ok := new(big.Rat).SetString(d); ok { fmt.Println(d, "=", r) } else { fmt.Println(d, "invalid decimal number") } }
}</lang> Output:
0.9054054 = 4527027/5000000 0.518518 = 259259/500000 0.75 = 3/4

Clearly this solution does not make any assumptions or approximations regarding repeating decimals.
Haskell
Note that the decimal values of the task description are truncated in some cases.
The first map finds the simplest fractions within a given radius, because the floating-point representation is not exact. The second line shows that the numbers could be parsed into fractions at compile time if they are given the right type. The last converts the string representation of the given values directly to fractions. <lang haskell>Prelude> map (\d -> Ratio.approxRational d 0.0001) [0.9054054, 0.518518, 0.75] [67 % 74,14 % 27,3 % 4] Prelude> [0.9054054, 0.518518, 0.75] :: [Rational] [4527027 % 5000000,259259 % 500000,3 % 4] Prelude> map (fst . head .

J
J's x:
built-in will find a rational number which "best matches" a floating point number.

These numbers are ratios where the integer on the left of the r
is the numerator and the integer on the right of the r
is the denominator. (Note that this use is in analogy with floating point notion, though it is true that hexadecimal notation and some languages' typed numeric notations use letters within numbers. Using letters rather than other characters makes lexical analysis simpler to remember - both letters and numbers are almost always "word forming characters".)
Note that the concept of "best" has to do with the expected precision of the argument: <lang j> x: 0.9 0.5 9r10 1r2
x: 0.9054 0.5185
4527r5000 1037r2000

67r74 14r27</lang>
Note that J allows us to specify an epsilon, for the purpose of recognizing a best fit, but the allowed values must be rather small. In J version 6, the value 5e_11 was nearly the largest epsilon allowed:
<lang j> x:(!. 5e_11) 0.9054054054 0.5185185185 67r74 14r27</lang>
(Note that epsilon will be scaled by magnitude of the largest number involved in a comparison when testing floating point representations of numbers for "equality". Note also that this J implementation uses 64 bit ieee floating point numbers.)

jq
Works with jq (*)
Works with gojq, the Go implementation of jq
The following definition of `number_to_r` can be used for JSON numbers in general, as illustrated by the examples.
This entry assumes the availability of two functions (`r/2` and `power/1`) as defined in the "rational" module at Arithmetic/Rational#jq, which also provides a definition for `rpp/0`, a pretty-printer used in the examples.
(*) With the caveat that the C implementation of jq does not support unlimited-precision integer arithmetic.
<lang jq># include "rational"; # a reminder that r/2 and power/1 are required
- Input: any JSON number, not only a decimal
- Output: a rational, constructed using r/2
- Requires power/1 (to take advantage of gojq's support for integer arithmetic)
- and r/2 (for rational number constructor)
def number_to_r:
# input: a decimal string # $in - either null or the original input # $e - the integer exponent of the original number, or 0 def dtor($in; $e): index(".") as $ix | if $in and ($ix == null) then $in else (if $ix then sub("[.]"; "") else . end | tonumber) as $n | (if $ix then ((length - ($ix+1)) - $e) else - $e end) as $p | if $p >= 0 then r( $n; 10|power($p)) else r( $n * (10|power(-$p)); 1) end end; . as $in | tostring | if (test("[Ee]")|not) then dtor($in; 0) else capture("^(?[^eE]*)[Ee](?<e>.*$)") | (.e | if length > 0 then tonumber else 0 end) as $e | .s | dtor(null; $e) end ;</lang>

Julia
Julia has a native Rational type, and provides a convenience conversion function that implements a standard algorithm for approximating a floating-point number by a ratio of integers to within a given tolerance, which defaults to machine epsilon.
<lang Julia>rationalize(0.9054054) rationalize(0.518518) rationalize(0.75)</lang>
4527027//5000000 259259//500000 3//4
Since Julia by default uses its Float64 type to represent floating-point numbers, if enough decimal digits are provided (so that the difference between the floating-point representation of the resulting fraction and the original number is smaller than the machine epsilon) the smaller fraction is returned, which in this case is the exact result:
julia> rationalize(0.5185185185185185) 14//27 julia> rationalize(0.9054054054054054) 67//74
Here is the core algorithm written in Julia 1.0, without handling various data types and corner cases:
<lang Julia>function rat(x::AbstractFloat, tol::Real=eps(x))::Rational
p, q, pp, qq = copysign(1,x), 0, 0, 1 x, y = abs(x), 1.0 r, a = modf(x) nt, t, tt = tol, 0.0, tol while r > nt # convergents of the continued fraction: np//nq = (p*a + pp) // (q*a + qq) np, nq = Int(a).*(p,q) .+ (pp,qq) p, pp, q, qq = np, p, nq, q
x, y = y, r # instead of the inexact 1/r... a, r = divrem(x,y)
t, tt = nt, t # maintain x = (p + (-1)^i * r) / q nt = a*t+tt end
i = Int(cld(x-tt,y+t)) # find optimal semiconvergent: smallest i such that x-i*y < i*t+tt return (i*p+pp) // (i*q+qq)
end</lang>

To convert a number into a rational with a denominator not dividing a power of 10, use contfrac
and the Gauss-Kuzmin distribution to distinguish (hopefully!) where to truncate.
Perl
Note: the following is considerably more complicated than what was specified, because the specification is not, well, specific. Three methods are provided with different interpretation of what "conversion" means: keeping the string representation the same, keeping machine representation the same, or find best approximation with denominator in a reasonable range. None of them takes integer overflow seriously (though the best_approx is not as badly subject to it), so not ready for real use. <lang perl>sub gcd {
my ($m, $n) = @_; ($m, $n) = ($n, $m % $n) while $n; return $m
}
sub rat_machine {
my $n = shift; my $denom = 1; while ($n != int $n) { # assuming the machine format is base 2, and multiplying # by 2 doesn't change the mantissa $n *= 2;
# multiply denom by 2, ignoring (very) possible overflow $denom <<= 1; } if ($n) { my $g = gcd($n, $denom); $n /= $g; $denom /= $g; } return $n, $denom;

Python
Note that the decimal values of the task description are truncated in some cases.
The first loop limits the size of the denominator, because the floating-point representation is not exact. The second converts the string representation of the given values directly to fractions. <lang python>>>> from fractions import Fraction >>> for d in (0.9054054, 0.518518, 0.75): print(d, Fraction.from_float(d).limit_denominator(100))
0.9054054 67/74 0.518518 14/27 0.75 3/4 >>> for d in '0.9054054 0.518518 0.75'.split(): print(d, Fraction(d))

Racket
Racket has builtin exact and inexact representantions of numbers, 3/4 is a valid number syntactically, and one can change between the exact and inexact values with the functions showed in the example. They have some amount of inaccuracy, but i guess it can be tolerated. <lang Racket>#lang racket

Raku
(formerly Perl 6) Decimals are natively represented as rationals in Raku, so if the task does not need to handle repeating decimals, it is trivially handled by the .nude method, which returns the numerator and denominator: <lang perl6>say .nude.join('/') for 0.9054054, 0.518518, 0.75;</lang>
- Output:
4527027/5000000 259259/500000 3/4
However, if we want to take repeating decimals into account, then we can get a bit fancier. <lang perl6>sub decimal_to_fraction ( Str $n, Int $rep_digits = 0 ) returns Str {
my ( $int, $dec ) = ( $n ~~ /^ (\d+) \. (\d+) $/ )».Str or die;
my ( $numer, $denom ) = ( $dec, 10 ** $dec.chars ); if $rep_digits { my $to_move = $dec.chars - $rep_digits; $numer -= $dec.substr(0, $to_move); $denom -= 10 ** $to_move; }
my $rat = Rat.new( $numer.Int, $denom.Int ).nude.join('/'); return $int > 0 ?? "$int $rat" !! $rat;
}
my @a = ['0.9054', 3], ['0.518', 3], ['0.75', 0], | (^4).map({['12.34567', $_]}); for @a -> [ $n, $d ] {
say "$n with $d repeating digits = ", decimal_to_fraction( $n, $d );

REXX
version 1
This REXX example supports almost any form of numeric input, some examples are:
- ±nnn
- ±nnn.
- ±nnn.fff
- ±.fff
- ±nnnE±ppp
- .fffE±ppp
- ±nnn.fffE±ppp (with an uppercase exponent signifier)
- ±nnn.fffe±ppp (with an lowercase exponent signifier)
- numeratorNumber/denominatorNumber
- denominator is optional (but if a / is used, it must be present)
- superfluous blanks are permitted (for whitespace)
- leading zeroes are permitted
- leading signs are permitted
- improper fractions are permitted
─── where:
- nnn represent decimal digits before the decimal point (if there is one)
- fff represent decimal digits after the decimal point (if there is one)
- ppp represent decimal digits of the (base ten) exponent
- ± represent an optional (leading) sign, either + or -
- . if it's trailing, the decimal point is optional
REXX can support almost any number of decimal digits, but 10 was chosen for practicality for this task.

For rational approximations, the Number .rat_approx method can be used: <lang ruby>say 0.518518.rat_approx.as_frac #=> 14/27 say 0.9054054.rat_approx.as_frac #=> 67/74</lang>

Here is a complete script with the implemented function and a small test suite (which is executed when this script is called directly from a shell) - originally on http://wiki.tcl.tk/752: <lang Tcl>#!/usr/bin/env tclsh
proc dbl2frac {dbl {eps 0.000001}} { for {set den 1} {$den<1024} {incr den} { set num [expr {round($dbl*$den)}] if {abs(double($num)/$den - $dbl) < $eps} break } list $num $den }
- -------------------- That's all... the rest is the test suite
if {[file tail $argv0] eq [file tail [info script]]} {
foreach {test -> expected} {
{dbl2frac 0.518518} -> {42 81} {dbl2frac 0.75} -> {3 4} {dbl2frac 0.9054054} -> {67 74}
} {
catch $test res if {$res ne $expected} { puts "$test -> $res, expected $expected" }
}
}</lang> Running it shows one unexpected result, but on closer examination it is clear that 14/27 equals 42/81, so it should indeed be the right solution:
