COMMENTS
| Limit of convergents equals zero; only the 6-th convergent is indeterminate. Other 2-adic continued fractions of zero are: A118824, A118827, A118830. A006519(n) is the highest power of 2 dividing n; A080277 = partial sums of A038712, where A038712(n) = 2*A006519(n) - 1.

EXAMPLE
| For n>=1, convergents A118822(k)/A118823(k) are:
at k = 4*n: -1/A080277(n);
at k = 4*n+1: -2/(2*A080277(n)-1);
at k = 4*n+2: -1/(A080277(n)-1);
at k = 4*n-1: 0/(-1)^n.
Convergents begin:
2/1, -1/-1, 0/-1, -1/1, -2/1, 1/0, 0/1, 1/-4,
2/-7, -1/3, 0/-1, -1/5, -2/9, 1/-4, 0/1, 1/-12,
2/-23, -1/11, 0/-1, -1/13, -2/25, 1/-12, 0/1, 1/-16,
2/-31, -1/15, 0/-1, -1/17, -2/33, 1/-16, 0/1, 1/-32, ...
