  2. Fibonacci sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_sequence

    Fibonacci numbers are also strongly related to the golden ratio: Binet's formula expresses the n-th Fibonacci number in terms of n and the golden ratio, and implies that the ratio of two consecutive Fibonacci numbers tends to the golden ratio as n increases.

  3. Generalizations of Fibonacci numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalizations_of...

    The semi-Fibonacci sequence (sequence A030067 in the OEIS) is defined via the same recursion for odd-indexed terms (+) = + and () =, but for even indices () = (), . The bisection A030068 of odd-indexed terms s ( n ) = a ( 2 n − 1 ) {\displaystyle s(n)=a(2n-1)} therefore verifies s ( n + 1 ) = s ( n ) + a ( n ) {\displaystyle s(n+1)=s(n)+a(n ...

  4. Fibonacci search technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_search_technique

    Let k be defined as an element in F, the array of Fibonacci numbers. n = F m is the array size. If n is not a Fibonacci number, let F m be the smallest number in F that is greater than n. The array of Fibonacci numbers is defined where F k+2 = F k+1 + F k, when k ≥ 0, F 1 = 1, and F 0 = 1. To test whether an item is in the list of ordered ...

  5. Pisano period - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pisano_period

    Plot of the first 10,000 Pisano periods. In number theory, the nth Pisano period, written as π (n), is the period with which the sequence of Fibonacci numbers taken modulo n repeats. Pisano periods are named after Leonardo Pisano, better known as Fibonacci.

  6. Greedy algorithm for Egyptian fractions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greedy_algorithm_for...

    The algorithm of Stratemeyer and Salzer performs the following sequence of steps: Since P 0 (x) < 0 for x = 1, and P 0 (x) > 0 for all x ≥ 2, there must be a root of P 0 (x) between 1 and 2. That is, the first term of the greedy expansion of the golden ratio is ⁠ 1 / 1 ⁠.

  7. Integer sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_sequence

    Beginning of the Fibonacci sequence on a building in Gothenburg. In mathematics, an integer sequence is a sequence (i.e., an ordered list) of integers.. An integer sequence may be specified explicitly by giving a formula for its nth term, or implicitly by giving a relationship between its terms.

  8. Liber Abaci - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liber_Abaci

    Fibonacci used a composite fraction notation in which a sequence of numerators and denominators shared the same fraction bar; each such term represented an additional fraction of the given numerator divided by the product of all the denominators below and to the right of it.

  9. Constant-recursive sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-recursive_sequence

    The Fibonacci sequence is constant-recursive: each element of the sequence is the sum of the previous two. Hasse diagram of some subclasses of constant-recursive sequences, ordered by inclusion In mathematics , an infinite sequence of numbers s 0 , s 1 , s 2 , s 3 , … {\displaystyle s_{0},s_{1},s_{2},s_{3},\ldots } is called constant ...
