The universe is written in the language of mathematics (Galileo)

\( \iiint_{\Omega} f(x,y,z) dV=\int_{\alpha}^{\beta}\int_{g_1(\theta)}^{g_2(\theta)}\int_{h_1(r,\theta)}^{h_2(r,\theta)} f(r,\theta,z) dz rdrd\theta\)


Continuous fraction examples

A continued express is denoted as a nested chain of fractions

\( [a_0;a_1, a_2, a_3,\dots]:= a_0+\cfrac{1}{a_1+\cfrac{1}{a_2+\cfrac{1}{a_3+\cdots}}} \)


\begin{equation*} \sqrt{2}=[1;2,2,2,2,\dots] \end{equation*}
\begin{align*} &\pi=[3; 7, 15, 1, 292, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 14, 2, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, ...] \\ & \frac{4}{\pi}=1+\frac{1^2}{2+\frac{3^2}{2+\frac{5^2}{2+\frac{7^2}{2+\cdots} }}} \end{align*} \(e= [2; 1, 2, 1, 1, 4, 1, 1, 6, \dots]\)  
OEIS
\begin{align*} & e=2+\frac{1}{1+\frac{1}{2+\frac{2}{3+\frac{3}{4+\frac{4}{\cdots}}}} } \end{align*}
