An infinite continued fraction of xn

I coded in SageMath to compute the 50th convergent of f(x) and plot for integers x=1,,50:

def f(x, n_terms):
    result = []
    for i in range(n_terms):
        result.extend([x**i, x**i])
    return continued_fraction([0] + result).n()

list_plot(([f(x,50) for x in range(1,50)]), title='$f(x)=\\dfrac{x}{x+\\dfrac{x^2}{x^2+\\dfrac{x^3}{x^3+\\ddots}}}$')

My question is to make a continuous plot of f(x). I have difficulty in that continued_fraction only support integer values of x.
