Software for recognizing algebraic or D-finite formal power series
Fricas is good at that. It can be accessed via sage, once installed.
sage: L=[catalan_number(i) for i in range(20)]
sage: fricas.guessHolo(L) …

A continued J fraction for $a_n = \frac{1}{(n+1)^2}$?
Sagemath can do that too
sage: x = PowerSeriesRing(QQ,'x').gen()
sage: f = sum(x**n/(n+1)**2 for n in range(20)).O(20)
sage: f.jacobi_continued_fraction()
((-1/4, -7/144),
(-13/28, -647/110 …
