Inverting a Batting Average - an Application of Continued Fractions
... By inverting a batting average, we mean the problem of enumerating all batting records with at most N at bats that result in the given batting average. We use the term inversion here because of its relation to finding partial right inverses of the map f : N × N → R given by h f (h, n) = round3 ( ) n ...
