A128842 Numerators of the continued fraction convergents of the decimal concatenation of the even natural numbers. 0

COMMENTS

The 15 digit ratio of the 13th convergent gives an accuracy of 93 digits in the expansion.

FORMULA

The even natural numbers 0,2,4.. are concatenated and then preceded by a decimal point to create the fraction N = .024681012... . This number is then evaluated with n=0,m=steps to iterate,x = N, a(0)=floor(N) using the loop: do a(n)=floor(x) x=1/(x-a(n)) n=n+1 loop until n=m

EXAMPLE

The 13th convergent 1209493/49005000 =

0.02468101214161820222426283032343638404244464850525456586062646668707274767880\

PROG
