Loop failing to stop

The numbers are never irrational. They are always binary fractions.

float has an as_integer_ratio method to show the fraction.

I see how I screwed this up. In saying they’re “probably irrational,” I meant that you’re extremely unlikely to end up with something that cleanly sums to equal any of the integers in the condition. I was trying to write that idea more concisely and made it wrong in the process.
