Numbers can be expressed as continued fractions of the form
Some continued fractions—such as those for e and π--continue forever without a discernable pattern in the coefficients, while the coefficients of continued fractions for square roots eventually repeat. For example,
or
Write a function that takes a non-square integer and returns the values of 
until the values repeat.
until the values repeat. This problem celebrates my finally cracking Cody Problem 1215 by James. If you struggle with Test 8, as I did, remember that MATLAB cannot represent decimals with infinite precision.
