Division (digital) - Slow Division Methods

Slow Division Methods

Slow division methods are all based on a standard recurrence equation:

where:

  • Pj = the partial remainder of the division
  • R = the radix
  • q n − (j + 1) = the digit of the quotient in position n-(j+1), where the digit positions are numbered from least-significant 0 to most significant n − 1
  • n = number of digits in the quotient
  • D = the denominator.

Famous quotes containing the words slow, division and/or methods:

    I am accustomed to think very long of going anywhere,—am slow to move. I hope to hear a response of the oracle first.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Major [William] McKinley visited me. He is on a stumping tour.... I criticized the bloody-shirt course of the canvass. It seems to me to be bad “politics,” and of no use.... It is a stale issue. An increasing number of people are interested in good relations with the South.... Two ways are open to succeed in the South: 1. A division of the white voters. 2. Education of the ignorant. Bloody-shirt utterances prevent division.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    The methods by which a trade union can alone act, are necessarily destructive; its organization is necessarily tyrannical.
    Henry George (1839–1897)
