  2. Fibonacci coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_coding

    In mathematics and computing, Fibonacci coding is a universal code [citation needed] which encodes positive integers into binary code words. It is one example of representations of integers based on Fibonacci numbers. Each code word ends with "11" and contains no other instances of "11" before the end. The Fibonacci code is closely related to ...

  3. Fibonacci sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_sequence

    Fibonacci sequence. In mathematics, the Fibonacci sequence is a sequence in which each number is the sum of the two preceding ones. Numbers that are part of the Fibonacci sequence are known as Fibonacci numbers, commonly denoted Fn . Many writers begin the sequence with 0 and 1, although some authors start it from 1 and 1 [1][2] and some (as ...

    The n-Fibonacci constant is the ratio toward which adjacent -Fibonacci numbers tend; it is also called the n th metallic mean, and it is the only positive root of =. For example, the case of n = 1 {\displaystyle n=1} is 1 + 5 2 {\displaystyle {\frac {1+{\sqrt {5}}}{2}}} , or the golden ratio , and the case of n = 2 {\displaystyle n=2} is 1 + 2 ...

    Fibonacci word. Characterization by a cutting sequence with a line of slope or , with the golden ratio. Fibonacci curves made from the 10th and 17th Fibonacci words [1] A Fibonacci word is a specific sequence of binary digits (or symbols from any two-letter alphabet). The Fibonacci word is formed by repeated concatenation in the same way that ...

  6. Lucas number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucas_number

    Lucas number. Infinite integer series where the next number is the sum of the two preceding it. The Lucas spiral, made with quarter- arcs, is a good approximation of the golden spiral when its terms are large. However, when its terms become very small, the arc's radius decreases rapidly from 3 to 1 then increases from 1 to 2.

    Fibonacci was born around 1170 to Guglielmo, an Italian merchant and customs official. [3] Guglielmo directed a trading post in Bugia (Béjaïa), in modern-day Algeria. [16] Fibonacci travelled with him as a young boy, and it was in Bugia (Algeria) where he was educated that he learned about the Hindu–Arabic numeral system. [17] [7]

    program. A "Hello, World!" program is generally a simple computer program that emits (or displays) to the screen (often the console) a message similar to "Hello, World!". A small piece of code in most general-purpose programming languages, this program is used to illustrate a language's basic syntax. A "Hello, World!"

    Python syntax and semantics. A snippet of Python code with keywords highlighted in bold yellow font. The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl, C, and Java ...
