cf2 :: Rational -> [Int] cf2 a = let ai = floor a <-- Doesn't this make ai an Int? -Michael in if a == (toRational ai) then [ai] else ai : cf2 (1 / (a - ai))

Where did I go wrong or what did I leave out?

cf2 returns [Int], but you're using it as the tail of a list starting with ai, which is a Rational. Need to decide which you actually want. At a guess:
> cf2 a = let ai = floor a > rai = toRational ai > in> if a ==
rai > then [ai] > else rai : cf2 (1 / (a - ai))
