%N A123482 Coefficients of the series giving the best rational approximations to sqrt(11).
%C A123482 The partial sums of the series 10/3 - 1/a(1) - 1/a(2) - 1/a(3) - ... give the best rational approximations to sqrt(11), which constitute every second convergent of the continued fraction. The corresponding continued fractions are [3;3,6,3], [3;3,6,3,6,3], [3;3,6,3,6,3,6,3] and so forth.
