%F From _Andrew Howroyd_, Mar 07 2018: (Start)

%e Let u = 2^(1/3), and let p(n,x) be the minimal polynomial of the number given by the n-th continued fraction:

%e [u,1,1,1,...] has p(0,x) = -5 - 15 x - 6 x^2 - 9 x^3 + 3 x^5 + x^6, so that a(0) = -9.

%e [1,u,1,1,1,...] has p(1,x) = -11 + 45 x - 66 x^2 + 35 x^3 + 6 x^4 - 15 x^5 + 5 x^6, so that a(1) = 35;

%e [1,1,u,1,1,1...] has p(2,x) = 131 - 633 x + 1110 x^2 - 969 x^3 + 456 x^4 - 111 x^5 + 11 x^6, so that a(2) = -969.
