Continued fractions | Mathematical analysis
In mathematics, an infinite periodic continued fraction is a continued fraction that can be placed in the form where the initial block of k + 1 partial denominators is followed by a block [ak+1, ak+2,...ak+m] of partial denominators that repeats over and over again, ad infinitum. For example, can be expanded to a periodic continued fraction, namely as [1,2,2,2,...]. The partial denominators {ai} can in general be any real or complex numbers. That general case is treated in the article convergence problem. The remainder of this article is devoted to the subject of simple continued fractions that are also periodic. In other words, the remainder of this article assumes that all the partial denominators ai (i ≥ 1) are positive integers. (Wikipedia).

Laura Capuano: An effective criterion for periodicity of p-adic continued fractions
Abstract: It goes back to Lagrange that a real quadratic irrational has always a periodic continued fraction. Starting from decades ago, several authors proposed different definitions of a p-adic continued fraction, and the definition depends on the chosen system of residues mod p. It turn

The first part develops the fraction from a simple equation or statement with a single unknown variable and demonstrates the recursive, iterative procedure. Possibly as simple and straightforward as it is possible for me to do. The second part still confuses me and amounts to no mare than

Unusual Decimal-to-Fraction Conversion that Just WORKS
Continued fractions prove to be an invaluable tool in converting decimals back to their fractions when you have limited information. They can also be used to find good fractional approximations for irrational numbers and in finding original square roots based solely off of their decimal ex
