RE: Repeating Decimals / Recurring Decimals
I have noticed an issue with the step 0 fraction reduction as I have implemented it in V0.7.

In V0.6, 1/1E14 would be processed by the algorithm (no reduction being implemented).
An error message would issue from Multiplicateorder10 as implementation limits are exceeded.

In V0.7, 1/1E14 is reduced to 1E-14/1 and non-integer numerator is processed, resulting in a NaN with no error message from MultiplicativeOrder10 seen.

Potentially, there might be other values which MultiplicateOrder10 might have handled, but which are not being processed because the reduction step is introducing unexpected non-integer values.
