Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Suppose that x(n) is a sequence of positive real numbers with divergent sum. By the Seidel Convergence Theorem, the continued fraction [x(1),x(2),x(3),...] converges.
EXAMPLE
[1, 2/1, 3/2, 5/3, 8/5,...] = 1.3985985... The first 5 ordinary convergents are 1, 3/2, 4/3, 7/5, 193/138.
