History has it that Fibonacci was a great mathematician who, in the thirteenth century, was involved in a mathematical competitions. In one of these competitions he was given the problem of how fast rabbits would breed under ideal circumstances. The problem set the limit of each pair giving birth to just two offspring, and none of the rabbits die.
In the process of solving the problem, the sequence of numbers now called the Fibonacci Sequence was proposed.
The sequence begins with 0, 1 and the sequence of new numbers is the sum of the previous two numbers. Thus we have the sequence:
0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89 etc.
This sequence has also been determined to approximately represent many facets of nature, for example the manner in which a trees branches form, the formation of a delta at a rivers end, efc.

Fibonacci found it interesting because he loved maths
he didn't actually find it interesting, in fact he fell asleep straight after he found it .
because it is one of the easiest methord
A recursive sequence uses previous numbers to find the next number in a sequence after the base case. The Fibonacci sequence is an example of such a sequence. The base numbers of the Fibonacci sequence are 0 and 1. After that base, you find the next number in the sequence by adding the two previous numbers. So, the Fibonacci sequence looks like so: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8.... So, the third number is found by adding the first and second numbers, 0 and 1. So the third number is 1. The fourth number is found by adding the second and third numbers, 1 and 1. So, the fourth number is 2. You can continue on this way forever.
NO, its not a Fibonacci Sequence, but it is very close. The Fibonacci Sequence is a series of numbers in which one term is the sum of the previous two terms. The Fibonacci Sequence would go as follows: 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,..... So 0+1=1, 1+1=2, 1+2=3, 2+3=5, ans so on.
Any single digit number is a palindrome. The Fibonacci sequence consists of infinitely many numbers so 8, being only one number, cannot be the Fibonacci sequence.
Because it is so interesting.. . .. ... ..... ........ ............. .....................Fibonacci first published a use for the pattern to explain bunny population growth in his book Liber Abaci (1202).Other interesting uses for the Fibonacci Sequence:The Golden Ratio and The Golden Spiral (as seen in DaVinci's Vitruvian Man)Phyllotaxis (how leaves appear on stem)Predicting stock share pricing (Fibonacci retractment)Graphs interconnecting parallel and distributed systems (Fibonacci Cubes)The Core in Cornwall, UK (architecture)The chorus of Astronomy, a hip-hop song by Black StarThe time signatures and syllable structure of the Toolsong LateralusAncestry of male bees
The Fibonacci sequence starts with 0, 1. Each subsequent number is the sum of the two preceding ones. So the sequence goes: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, and so on.
Fibonnacci is Italian for Fish, so the "fish" sequence is a clever play on words.
its the Fibonacci sequence
Hey well the Fibonacci is a sequence it goes 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34 and carry's on like that you have one number in the sequence then add the next number to get the number after that so its quite simple really
because this sequence is all about number and number and number and number .... and so on and on and on and on again....its never stop...
