Hello again,
This is another PHP mathematical question. How can I display a bar over a
number (overline) if it's a repeating decimal? When the user types in 1 by
3, they get 0.333333333333. I want it to display as 0.3 with the 3
overlined. How can I do this keeping in mind that not all numbers will be
repeating decimals?
Thanks,
Stephen Craton
