Problem: Fraction to Recurring Decimal

Medium
30 min
Explore how to convert a fraction given by numerator and denominator into its decimal string format, identifying recurring decimal parts enclosed in parentheses. Learn to apply hash maps to detect repeating sequences, enhance problem-solving skills, and prepare for coding interviews with this practical lesson.

Statement

Given the two integer values of a fraction, numerator and denominator, implement a function that returns the fraction in string format. If the fractional part repeats, enclose the repeating part in parentheses.

Constraints:

  • denominator !=0!= 0
  • 105-10^{5} \leq numerator, denominator 1051\leq 10^{5} - 1
