  • ### Explanation
  • Virtual fractions are integers that have the feature that you can multiply them with the denominator and you get the numerator when you store them in a N-Bit integer.
  • For example, you have the 16 bit unsigned integer with the value `0xAAAB` (43691). You can multiply it with 3 and get 1.
  • ```
  • 3 * 0xAAAB = 3 * 0b1010 1010 1010 1011 = 3 * 43691
  • = 0x20001 = 0b10 0000 0000 0000 0001 = 131073
  • Storing it in a 16 bit variable drops the 1 at bit 17:
  • = 0x0001 = 0b0000 0000 0000 0001 = 1
  • ```
  • Or $3 \cdot 43691 = 1 \mod 65536$
  • This is basically a p-adic/2-adic number with a limited amount of digits. And it is the same as the modular multiplicative inverse with a modulus of 65536 ($2^{16}$).
  • This works only with bases that are odd, without any shifting. For this challenge we only print the ones with a numerator of 1.
  • -------
  • ### Rules
  • - Print at least 16 bit of the virtual fraction, you can use more.
  • - Print at least the virtual fractions of `1/a` for odd a where `a<98`.
  • - You can print it in any normal base
  • - You can print additional stuff, but it should be clear what parts belong to the virtual fractions and what not.
  • - Your program should print the required output in less than 1h on a modern PC.
  • -------
  • ### Ungolfed example
  • ```
  • #!/usr/bin/env python3
  • import sys
  • #Calculates the modular multiplicative inverse
  • def imod(a, n):
  • c=1
  • while c % a:
  • c+=n
  • return c//a
  • #Print the virtual fractions for 16-bit integers
  • n=2**16
  • for i in range(1,98,2): #For the values 1/1, 1/3, ... 1/97
  • b = imod(i,n)
  • print("{:>2} * 0x{:>04X} = {:2>} mod 0x{:>04X}".format(i,b,i*b%n,n))
  • ```
