The title pretty much says it all: this JavaScript code takes a decimal number and converts it into a fraction.

This code:

• recognizes 0.3333333 as 1/3
• allows not to extract the integral part: 1.5 can return 1 1/2 (by default) or 3/2
• works with negative numbers

function decimalToFraction(value, donly = true) {
  var tolerance = 1.0E-6; // from how many decimals the number is rounded
  var h1 = 1;
  var h2 = 0;
  var k1 = 0;
  var k2 = 1;
  var negative = false;
  var i;

  if (parseInt(value) == value) { // if value is an integer, stop the script
    return value;
  } else if (value < 0) {
    negative = true;
    value = -value;
  }

  if (donly) {
    i = parseInt(value);
    value -= i;
  }

  var b = value;

  do {
    var a = Math.floor(b);
    console.log(a)
    var aux = h1;
    h1 = a * h1 + h2;
    h2 = aux;
    aux = k1;
    k1 = a * k1 + k2;
    k2 = aux;
    b = 1 / (b - a);
  } while (Math.abs(value - h1 / k1) > value * tolerance);

  return (negative ? "-" : '') + ((donly & (i != 0)) ? i + ' ' : '') + (h1 == 0 ? '' : h1 + "/" + k1);
}

A few examples:

decimalToFraction(0.666) returns 333/500
decimalToFraction(0.6666666) returns 2/3
decimalToFraction(-2.56) returns -2 14/25
decimalToFraction(2.5) returns 2 1/2
decimalToFraction(2.5, false) returns 5/2 (setting false ignores the integral part)
