To compute the <span><math>L{:}s</math></span> sequence, we depleted terms of the generator’s continued fraction. By doing the opposite — gradually building up the generator’s continued fraction by incrementing terms — we can determine the path our generator takes through the Stern-Brocot tree.

We’ll use the example of the golden generator, with continued fraction [0; 2, 1] :

If we look at the path that the generator ≈ 0.381966 takes through the scale tree — which intervals it crosses between as it goes — we’ll see that they are precisely the intervals bounded by these ratios, in this order.
