The generating function of a family of the sequences in terms of the continuant (Q628891)

Let \(a_0,a_1,\dots,a_{r-1}\) be positive integers, and define the sequence \({q_m}\) by \[ q_0=1,\;q_1=1,\;q_m=a_tq_{m-1}+q_{m-2},\;m\geq 2,\;t\equiv m\pmod r. \] The author determines the generating function \(F(x)=\sum_{m=0}^\infty q_mx^m\).
