There are three different kinds of rational numbers according to the parity of the numerator and denominator, say odd/odd, even/odd and odd/even rational numbers. We study algorithms to find best approximations by rational numbers of given parities and compare these algorithms with continued fraction expansions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-03-19T01:13:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11J04", "11J70" ], "keywords": [ "parity types", "diophantine approximation", "best rational approximations", "odd/even rational numbers", "irrational number" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
