Extract

Introduction. Continued fractions of the form are called Hurwitzian if b1, …, bh, are positive integers, ƒ1(x), …, ƒk(x) are polynomials with rational coefficients which take positive integral values for x = 0, 1, 2, …, and at least one of the polynomials is not constant. f1(x), …, fk(x) are said to form a quasi-period.
