Does anyone know of a package or macro that handles decimal long division? For example, I want to convert 3/8 to a decimal and show all of the steps. I found a macro for longdiv that works great for integers, but was wondering if anyone knew of something that worked with decimals. If this doesn't exist yet, how would I go about writing something to do this? Thanks!

With a french presentation (options for other countries will be in the next version 0.3):
\documentclass[]{article}
\usepackage{xlop}
\begin{document}
\opdiv{3}{8}
\opdiv{22}{7}
\end{document}

This is really cool - I am hoping to have an English version at some point - do you know when the version will be ready? Thanks! – Shane Fulmer Mar 31 '11 at 13:16

@azetina For me no but I'm not sure. There are a lot of new packages each day – Alain Matthes Feb 21 '12 at 19:23
