title: Is there any way to get the repeating decimal section of a fraction in Python?
body: <p>I'm working with fractions using Python's decimal module and I'd like to get just the repeating part of a certain fraction. For example: if I had 1/3 I'd like to get 3, if I had 1/7 I'd like to get 142857. Is there any standard function to do this?</p>
