The Fibonacci sequence is named after Italian mathematician Leonardo of Pisa, known as Fibonacci. His 1202 book Liber Abaci introduced the sequence to Western European mathematics, although the sequence had been described earlier as Virahankanumbers in Indian mathematics.

Are the Fibonacci sequence and the Fibonacci triangle the same thing?

No, the Fibonacci sequence and the Fibonacci triangle are not the same thing. The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones, typically starting with 0 and 1. In contrast, the Fibonacci triangle, also known as the Fibonacci triangle or triangle of Fibonacci numbers, is a triangular arrangement of numbers that represents combinations of Fibonacci numbers, often related to combinatorial properties. While both concepts are related to Fibonacci numbers, they have different structures and applications.

What did Fibonacci do in his life?

Fibonacci accomplished: doing paintings and also invented Fibonacci numbers. Fibonacci traveled to some Mediterranean countries, to study the most important Arab mathematicians at that time. Fibonacci ended his travels around the year 1200 and at that time he returned to Pisa.

Why are Fibonacci numbers so special?

Fibonacci numbers are important in art and music. The ratio between successive Fibonacci numbers approximates an important constant called "the golden mean" or sometimes phi, which is approximately 1.61803.


What are the negative Fibonacci numbers called?

The negative Fibonacci numbers (also known as the Negafibonacci numbers) consist of the Fibonacci numbers in an alternating negative and positive pattern.The start of the Negafibonacci sequence runs thus:1, -1, 2, -3, 5, -8, 13, -21...And continues in a pattern identical to the Fibonacci numbers but with alternating negative and positive numbers.
