    The Fibonacci sequence, shows a numerical pattern.

    This pattern's interest and significance beyond its


    creator's expectations. It may model or describe phenomena in mathematics, science, art, and nature.
    The golden ratio, spirals, and self-similar curves are all mathematical concepts that have long been
    admired for their beauty, but no one knows why they are so clearly reflected in art and nature.

    The history started in 1202 in Pisa, Italy. Leonardo Pisano Bigollo was a young man from a prominent
    trading family in Pisa. The mathematical concepts that had come west from India via the Arabic
    countries fascinated him throughout his East Asian travels. Returning to Pisa, he presented these ideas
    in the landmark mathematical work Liber Abaci. Leonardo, known as Fibonacci, was the most famous
    mathematician of the Middle Ages. His work was on mathematical methods in trade, but he is
    recognized for two contributions, one major and one minor.

    The important one: he introduced the Hindu numeric method to Europe. Modern mathematics would
    not have been able without this alteration to the Hindu system, which we now call Arabic notation, as it
    reached west over Arabic countries.
