I Kinda Figured, but Why Does 7 Conflict with Base 10 So Much?

For any explanation beyond that, I want a more formal definition of "complex" pattern.
I kinda got the gist of what you were saying, but actually trying to follow most those sentences made my head hurt.

It certainly seems to, at least; like I say, it's even prime. And sorry 'bout that; I kinda figured the language would be jarring, too, but wasn't sure how to prevent it. By "complex" I simply meant it seems odd that a single digit would yield a SIX digit repeating decimal as its reciprocal. All the rest either terminate or repeat after one digit (except 1/6, and even it terminates after two digits. ) There has to be a reason, I just can't see it.
While we're at it, how are things? Been a while, but hope you're well. Still get to Skype? There's actually a halfway decent chat there if you're interested; it's not quite the same as wotmanias (for one thing, you can't sheep anyone

Number theory holds a concept called "cyclic numbers."

"If leading zeros are not permitted on numerals, then 142857 is the only cyclic number in decimal. "

Number THEORY is great fun, but too many folks make math too tedious, I'm afraid.

You tend to get cyclic repeats when dividing by primes

It's usually right but I wouldn't but much value on the implied importance
