%N Denominators of the continued fraction convergents of the decimal concatenation of the even natural numbers.
%C The 15 digit ratio of the 13th convergent gives an accuracy of 93 digits in the expansion.
%F 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
