How can I express this as a continued fraction?

$\left(\frac{2207 + 987\sqrt{5}}{2}\right)^{1/8}$

    You've asked sixteen questions and haven't accepted a single one. Continuing that will make some very clever people reluctant to provide an answer. It's polite to accept an answer that you think is good: it gives both you and the respondent a boost in reputation, which some people find important. To accept an answer, click on the check mark to the left of your question. Please do so.2012-11-16

$$\frac{3 + \sqrt{5}}{2} = 2 + 1/(1 + 1/(1 + 1/\ldots))$$
