Continued Fraction Expansion of Irrational Square Root/Examples/2

Examples of Continued Fraction Expansion of Irrational Square Root
The continued fraction expansion of the square root of $2$ is given by:
 * $\sqrt 2 = \sqbrk {1, \sequence 2}$

Proof
Thus it is possible to replace $\sqrt 2$ recursively:

The pattern repeats indefinitely, producing the continued fraction expansion:
 * $\sqrt 2 = \sqbrk {1, 2, 2, 2, \ldots} = \sqbrk {1, \sequence 2}$
