The accelerated continued fraction (ACF) of a positive rational number x/y, where GCD(x,y) = 1, is defined by the algorithm below. The number of terms in ACF(x/y) is <= the number of terms in the classical continued fraction CF(x/y).
Step 1. Put w = Mod[x,y]. If w=0, put c(0) = x/y and Stop.
If 0 < w <= y/2, put c(0) = floor(x/y), u->y, v->w, f->1, go to step 2;
if w>y/2, put c(0) = 1 + floor(x/y), u->y, v->y - w, f->-1, go to step 2.
For i>=2, Step i is in 5 cases, as follows:
Case 0.1: f = 1 and w = 0. Put w = Mod[x,y] and c(i) = u/v and Stop.
Case 0.2: f = -1 and w = 0. Put w = Mod[x,y] and c(i) = -u/v and Stop.
Case 1: f = 1 and w <= v/2. Put w = Mod[x,y] and c(i) = floor(u/v), u->v, v->w, f->1, go to step i+1.
Case 2: f = 1 and w > v/2. Put w = Mod[x,y] and c(i) = 1 + floor(u/v), u->y, v->v - w, f->-1, go to step i+1.
Case 3: f = -1 and w <= v/2. Put w = Mod[x,y] and c(i) = -floor(u/v), u->v, v->w, f->-1, go to step i+1.
Case 4: f = -1 and w > v/2. Put w = Mod[x,y] and c(i) = -1 - floor(u/v), u->y, v->v - w, f->-f, go to step i+1.
