Clarify task

None of the submissions have an a or b in their code, or deal in any way with quadratic real numbers (not to/nor mention the stretch goal). The referenced continued fraction convergents task needs clarification, or you could use the a' search.
This task itself (probably) only needs minor clarification on how to find/use a'/convergents, for now we should stem the rot of further replication of the duff entries we already have (mea culpa).
I can almost see from the second half how one might print sqrt(2), but not the golden ratio. Surely it should have a,b,m,n in and m,n out??? Petelomax (talk) 16:14, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
