# --description--
|
|
|
|
A best approximation to a real number x for the denominator bound d is a rational number r/s (in reduced form) with s ≤ d, so that any rational number p/q which is closer to x than r/s has q > d.
|
|
|
|
Usually the best approximation to a real number is uniquely determined for all denominator bounds. However, there are some exceptions, e.g. 9/40 has the two best approximations 1/4 and 1/5 for the denominator bound 6. We shall call a real number x ambiguous, if there is at least one denominator bound for which x possesses two best approximations. Clearly, an ambiguous number is necessarily rational.
|
|
|
|
How many ambiguous numbers x = p/q, 0 < x < 1/100, are there whose denominator q does not exceed 108?

`euler198()` should return 52374425.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.strictEqual(euler198(), 52374425);
|
|
```
