Abstract: We continue our investigation, begun with M. Anselm, of a generalization of classical continued fractions, where the “numerator” 1 is replaced by an arbitrary positive integer N. Here we investigate the question of the periodicity of the “best” continued fraction expansion with “numerator” N of the square root of E for a nonsquare positive integer E.
