Properties
The following are the properties of Continued fraction:
- Finite continued fraction will always produce rational numbers
- Infinite continued fraction may be used to approximate irrational numbers
- Any regular continued fraction where (the term is natural numbers ) always converges (this is based on Van Vleck's Theorem)
- Any periodic continued fraction with (the term is positive real numbers) always converges (this is also based on Van Vleck's Theorem)
