+
+
+The `centered_continued_fraction` class provided by Boost affords the ability to convert a floating point number into a centered continued fraction.
+Unlike the simple continued fraction, a centered continued fraction allows partial denominators to be negative.
+
+Here's a minimal working example:
+
+    using boost::math::constants::pi;
+    using boost::math::tools::centered_continued_fraction;
+    auto cfrac = centered_continued_fraction(pi<long double>());
+    std::cout << "π ≈ " << cfrac << "\n";
+    // Prints:
+    // π ≈ [3; 7, 16, -294, 3, -4, 5, -15, -3, 2, 2]
+
+This function achieves the same end as the Maple syntax
+
+[$../images/maple_cfrac.png]
+
+You should convince yourself that the Maple output and the notation we use are in fact the same thing.
+
+The class computes partial denominators which simultaneously computing convergents with the modified Lentz's algorithm.
+Once a convergent is within a few ulps of the input value, the computation stops.
+
+Just like simple continued fractions, centered continued fractions admit a "Khinchin constant".
+The value of this constant is ~5.454517 (see [@http://jeremiebourdon.free.fr/data/Khintchine.pdf here]).
+We can evaluate the "empirical Khinchin constant" for a particular number via
+
+    cfrac.khinchin_geometric_mean();
+
+If this is close to 5.454517, then the number is probably uninteresting with respect to its characterization as a centered continued fraction.
