Fractions to decimals calculator

This is the COOLEST fractions to decimals calculator I've seen! It will convert a fraction into a decimal to any number of decimal places, and TELL you if it is a recurring decimal, and how many digits its period is.

I tried 2/10392, and it said "2/10392=1/5196 has 2 initial digits followed by a period of 432 digits." I won't copy the actual digits here...

Hat Tip goes to MathNotations Blog.
