I realized a pattern in the division of an integer n by 7.
the repeating patterns :
1/7 : 142857
2/7 : 285714
3/7 : 428571
4/7 : 571428
5/7 : 714285
6/7 : 857142
in each one, the are just permutations of the numbers : 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8
from left to right :
: +1, +2, +1, +2, +1
Is there a significance to this ?
