Abstract
A lot of interesting examples from the history of mathematics axe seldom if at all used in school mathematics. Continuous fractions were used in the ancient Greece to calculate values of irrational numbers. In the present paper we show their possible applications to the problems of limit, and problems involving sequences and series.
