Dividing by 10

Another iterative process that leads middle school students to a better understanding of  our base 10 number system.  It also lets them see the patterns that emerge with decimals when they divide by 10. 

If you run the program for them without showing them the code, most students, even beginners, will be able to program it assuming that they've had some practice with loops.

You might want to help them a little bit with join statements.

My version of the code is here.
