Are you interested in learning how to make blockchain-based systems that guarantee privacy and scalability capable of complex tasks, such as machine learning? The programming language LEO simplifies the programming of ZKP-based programs but only supports integer-type-based numbers by default. This article analyzes the design of fixed-point numbers in zkSNARKS using LEO, which allows for computing using fractions for a wide range of applications. Learn how to represent fractional numbers and consider the trade-offs between the range of values that can be stored and the accuracy of the numbers represented. The knowledge is valuable for anyone building complex programs in zkSNARKs. Blockchain-based systems are emerging across many parts of our lives in industries such as DeFi or gaming. However, many contemporary blockchains need more privacy and scalability, limiting the range of use cases. Zero-knowledge proofs and blockchains enabled by zero-knowledge proofs, such as Aleo, promise to p
