Sounds like fun! If I were you, I would separate this into two problems. 1) given the divisor and the divisee, produce a “trace” of the division. 2) given a “trace”, produce a (single multi-line) string representing it. Most of the thinking will be in developing the data definition for the “trace. ” Once this is done, the rest should be pretty straightforward.
