Hi.

I'd like to add some other notations for the "continued fraction" section of Wikipedia's Sine article:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine#Continued_fraction

There are other notation styles listed here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalized_continued_fraction#Notation

I'd especially like something that writes it in a more general form.

Any suggestions for an image/diagram for this section would be appreciated too.

Thanks.

 Is this not just asking people to write a section of Wikipedia? – Yemon Choi Oct 6 2010 at 7:12

 What difference does writing a CF in different notation make? It's not like the CF turns into a different beastie if you use different notation. – J. M. Oct 6 2010 at 9:42

 I'm afraid Wikipedia feature requests are not appropriate at MathOverflow, so I'm closing the question. If you want to make an image, I'd suggest superimposing graphs of some of the first convergents of the continued fraction. – S. Carnahan♦ Oct 6 2010 at 12:05
Oh, I get it. You're not ment to say why you're asking. I'll remember that next time. – Pengo Oct 6 2010 at 12:33

 @Pengo, independently of the fact that this is not the place to ask people to write WP sections (read the FAQ), your question does not make much sense. Writing the continued fraction for $\sin$ you linked to in another notation does not need any mathematics, just rewriting, and by changing the notation you will not get something «in a more general form». – Mariano Suárez-Alvarez Oct 6 2010 at 13:08
