Extract

Notation. By (x/y, X/Y) = a1.a2a3 … are let it be understood that after a vulgar fraction X/Y has been converted into a continued fraction (CF.), a1.a2a3 … are the partial quotients, and x/y is the penultimate convergent. The point placed after a1 is intended to show that, in the case of a proper fraction, the first partial quotient must be taken as zero.
