A230000 Triangular array read by rows: row n shows the coefficients of the polynomial u(n) = c(0) + c(1)*x + ... + c(k)*x^k which is the numerator of the n-th convergent of the continued fraction [1, 1/x, 1/x^2, ... ,1/x^n].

Formula

Write the numerator polynomials as u(0), u(1), u(2), ... and the denominator polynomials as v(0), v(1), v(2),... Let p(0) = 1, q(0) = 1; p(1) = (1 + x)/x; q(1) = 1/x; p(n ) = p(n-1)/x^n + p(n-2), q(n) = q(n-1)/x^n + q(n-2). Then u(n)/v(n) = p(n)/q(n) for n>=0.
