    The paper deals with the estimation of the Hausdorff dimension of sets \(E_ n=E(x | a_ 1,a_ 2,...\leq n)\), where \(x=(0;a_ 1a_ 2...)\) is the continued fraction expansion of x. According to a result of Th. Cusick, the dimension is characterized by the convergence-exponent of the series \[ (1)\quad \sum^{\infty}_{r=0}\sum_{\nu \in B_ n(r)}\frac{1}{\nu^ s}\quad, \] where the inner sum is carried out over the B's with \((0;a_ 1a_ 2...a_ r)=A_ r/B_ r\) with \((A_ r,B_ r)=1\) and \(a_ 1,a_ 2,...,a_ r\leq n.\) The novelty in the paper is the use of a recursion-formula making the use of computers more efficient in the calculating of the convergence- exponent of the series (1).
