* The task description uses notation [1;3,5] and [3;7] but this notation does not appear in any of the implementations (well, in some as a literal string, but it is not used for computational purposes). This is either a red herring or needs documentation. Perhaps it's a reference into some external manuscript? Or perhaps it has to do with a method for constructing continued fractions? Whatever is going on should be stated more clearly. |

* The task description uses the notation "+ 1/2" which apparently corresponds to an "NG matrix" with a1=2, a=1, b1=0, b=2 and the notation "divided by 4" which apparently corresponds to an "NG matrix" with a1=1, a=0, b1=0, b=4. There is probably a good reason for this, but that should also be documented. Some implementations also use other "NG Matrices" but why? |
