The Fibonacci Sequence is a math series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones. Beginning with 0 and 1, so 0+1=1, 1+1=2, 1+2=3, 2+3=5, 3+5=8, 5+8=13, 8+13=21 and so on. The Fibonacci Numbers would be 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34 and so on.

What's interesting is that in nature the Fibonacci numbers keep showing up.

Petals on a flower are usually a Fibonacci number.

Lillys-3

Buttercups-5

Daisy-34

trees branch out, the number of the branches is a Fibonacci number.

The numbers show up all across nature, from animals, plants to space.

Interesting math, discovered by the Italian mathematician in the 13th century researching rabbits.

Today it's sometimes referenced as an example of evidence that we're in a simulation. The natural world programed by math such as the Planck constant, the speed of light, gravity. Natural laws written in the fabric of our simulation. Elon Musk has postulated that the chances we are in base reality is 1 in a billion.

Others will say that the Fibonacci Sequence is an example of coincidence, and that humans are programed to look for coincidences. Programed to look for them, well that debunks the simulation theory.

Love me some Golden Ratio. See it everywhere in everything. Must be some fundamental reason as to why. I've always been fascinated by fractoids and long ago designed a tattoo on the back of my calf based on trianglular fractoid pattern that was inspired by Hawaiian traditional tattoos where they would never tattoo the image of a shark because of it's powerful mana but instead used a solid triangle to represent the shark's tooth.

Just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean they aren't out to get me.

As John Calvin would say, “What a coincidence!”

Very interesting number system. So if I told you that the "Fibonacci Sequence Number" of curves in this nasty little boundary was 28657 can it be back calculated or do you have to just run the sequence?
