Lab #$3$

Base Conversions of Fractions Using C

The main purpose of this lab is to provide an exercise in the ASCII code, null terminated strings in $C$ and base converstion with non$-$decimal fractions. Write a C program to convert an input fraction of integers into the floating point of another base. This program should take input as four integers, the numerator, the denominator, the base, and the number of digits.

To do this you may use the statements:

$)<mi\; id="EditorElement\_6439949">(</mi><mn\; id="EditorElement\_6439941">1</mn><mn\; id="EditorElement\_6439942">0</mn>$

in a loop. To print out the answer when the loop is finished a string representing the answer needs to be constructed as the loop executes.

char s$[100]$;

Because the digits are calculated left to right, no reversal is needed.

It may then be printed out using printf $($s$)$; $.$

At the end of the string you must store a zero. This tells printf$()$; where to stop printing. Before that you should store an end of line character.

Demonstrate this program to me when you have it working.
