I came across a different reference to the Stern-Brocot Tree quite a
while back now on the internet, and of course noticed right away that
is was the same as the Wilson Scale Tree as well... I'll see if I

Here's a page on the Farey/Stern-Brocot tree I bookmarked a while back. If
it's the one I think it is, it'll have stuff on continued fractions as well.
Quite interesting.
