: BTW, Nigel, please use the internal link style for links within Rosetta Code (and <tt>wp:</tt> links for links into english Wikipedia) as that makes for better SEO. It's a small thing, but it's better for this site. Cheers! –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 10:01, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

::: I've done the first parts of the rename. Any suggestion for what to call the other two pages? Perhaps “<tt>Continued fraction/Arithmetic/Monadic operations</tt>” and “<tt>Continued fraction/Arithmetic/Dyadic operations</tt>”? (Justification: one's a CF->CF operator system, and the other is a CFxCF->CF operator system.) But I'm not very attached to those names. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 11:54, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
:::: Gower uses Bivarate solution for arithmatic with two continued fractions. By extension the case with one continued fraction could be Monovarate. --[[User:Nigel Galloway|Nigel Galloway]] ([[User talk:Nigel Galloway|talk]]) 11:30, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

I've just been implementing this and I was looking at the series of numbers leading up to: <math>[314285714;100000000]</math> and I was wondering just what the point of it was. <math>[3141592653589793;1000000000000000]</math> is far more interesting! –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 11:42, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
:Never mind me; you're trying for approximations to 22/7 and not actually π. D'oh! –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 09:32, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
