%C A102446 The continued fraction expansion c_0 = 0, c_n = 1/2 (n>0) (see a paper 
               by Bremner & Tzanakis) has convergents 2/1, 2/5, 10/9, 18/29, 58/
               65, 130/181, ... where the numerators and denominators satisfy the 
               recurrence a_n = a_{n-1} + 4a_{n-2}. The denominators are A006131 
               and the numerators are the present sequence.
