Salute

@calc84maniac: Sweet routine. I salute your superior programming skills. I avoid using While loops, but your routine is definitely shorter and sweeter than mine. :-) --Saibot84 06:48, 11 April 2007 (PDT)

  • Here is the original routine made by Weregoose. --Burr 20:19, 11 April 2007 (PDT)

Wow, I never even saw that routine before. I just figured that using Euclid's gcd algorithm would work nicely. Calc84maniac 07:42, 14 April 2007 (PDT)

Question

Anyone see any reason to keep my code here? --Saibot84 06:50, 11 April 2007 (PDT)

Yes. Although it appears that mostly experts are on WikiTI, I suspect there are many passive users that browse this wiki. One possible reason to keep your code is for the beginners ("newbs") to learn from them. It might help for them to compare and contrast the differences in implementations. They can "step through" your (well commented) code and see how you drew your logic in writing DecToFrac. With that said, I'll have to find some time out of my day to do the above. :) Gambit 10:49, 11 April 2007 (PDT)
