Should Try for j = 0. When the denominator is a multiple of 2 and/or 5 only!

the output for j==0 is 0/1??
why is there a need to check for denominator tat is multiple of 2 and/or 5?

wat i do is find the GCD of the nominator n denominator n keep reducing the fraction with it.

Getting WA too...

Post by jpfarias »

I take care about cases where j == 0, but still got WA.

For:
0 0.5
My answer is 1/2

For:
0 0.35
My answer is 7/20

Can't get what's wrong...
BTW, should I compute the GCD between the denumerator and the numerator more than once? I think that the GCD will reduce it the most possible...

Got PE

Post by jpfarias »

Thank u a lot!!!

The problem with my one was that I was using unsigned long, so I've changed it to unsigned long long and got PE. I'll see what's still wrong in my output later...

Thanx..............

a few suggestions

Post by ec3_limz »

1. try not to use double.

2. when you output, no need to output the numbers as 11 characters.

hehe, thanks for the tip. I'm not sure why i was even using
doubles to begin with, the integer-only solution is pretty obvious
and easy to code.

Oh, btw, those were L's (not ones) for printing long long's.

Fix my problem

Post by Shantanu »

Can anyone tell me where is my fault: :cry:
#include <stdio.h>

#include <math.h>

double gcd(double m,double n)
{
double r=fmod(m,n);
while(r)
{
m=n;
n=r;
r=fmod(m,n);
}
return n;
}

void main(void)
{

double cse=1,x,nn,dd,j,k,div,pp,d,f;
unsigned long long dummy;
double dum;

while(2==scanf("%lf%lf",&j,&x) && j!=-1)
{
if(x==0)
{
printf("Case %0.lf: 0/1\n",cse++);
continue;
}
f=1;
nn=x*pow(10,j);
for(k=0;;k++)
{
dummy=nn;
dum=dummy;
if(dum==nn)break;

nn*=10;
f*=10;
}
if(j)
{
modf((x*pow(10,k)),&d);
nn-=d;
dd=pow(10,k+j)-pow(10,k);
}
else dd=f;

div=gcd(dd,nn);
printf("Case %0.lf: %.0lf/%.0lf\n",cse++,nn/div,dd/div);
}
}
