By "repeating", do you mean "recurring" (the only term I have ever seen for values like 0.33333.....)?
If so perhaps the easiest way is by a division (hard to represent in a very basic text editor not set up to represent arithmetic):
3)1.00000000
3 into 1 won't go so carry 1:
3 )0.10 = 0.3 remainder 0.01 so carry 1:
3)0.310...
0.33....
And so on, if that survives being posted!
