Of course, this could also be a sequence starting with 1 and adding 0, 1, 2, 3 … so maybe not so easy.

Bonus: If you have only one element of a Fibonacci sequence in Mexico it’s a Fibbinacho.

The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two that precede it. Starting at 0 and 1, the sequence looks like this: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, and so on forever. The Fibonacci sequence can be described using a mathematical equation: Xn+2= Xn+1 + Xn.

Fibonacci

Sequences

Are hard;

But even so

Just follow one simple rule

And you will understand it all soon enough

Or get this far, decide not to bother, and give up for good.

Damn I didn't know what that was when I took an IQ test and figured it out without knowing about it??

The Fibonacci sequence also has something to do with the Golden Ratio. That’s pretty cool to. Most things in nature are created using this.

Random facts about Fibonacci’s sequence: Author is Leonardo Bonacci also known as Fibonacci. (He is son of Gustav Bonacci an Italian merchant. That “Fi” before Bonacci means he is son of someone) Fibonacci played with rabbit reproduction and created this sequence. If you express Fibonacci’s sequence in vector space with two last numbers as bases, it will converge to the golden ratio. (Look it up at the exact math explanation) We have equation for the n-th Fibonacci number which is based on the golden ratio.

They're the base cases of the recursion and are therefore 0 and 1 by definition. You need two base cases because the recursive function uses the previous two numbers in the series to calculate the current one.

Edit: Sorry calling them base cases is inaccurate since that's another thing entirely in recursion. The reason they're defined stands though, the recurrence requires two initial values to work.

I only know about the sequence thru the episode of Criminal Minds with guest star Jason Alexander. Thanks goes to you Dr. Spencer Reid!
