Nice example. For those who do not understand why it is so long, a denominator multiplied by a period must be all-nines. E.g. 1/7 = 0.(142857), because 142857x7 = 999999, so that 0.(142857)x7 = 0.(999999) = 1 back again. For some simple numbers N their nearest 999...999/N integer counterpart is enormously huge.
