Hi!
The Fibonacci sequence is a mathematical proof, which generally states that after a first set of 2 numbers, the 3rd and subsequent remaining numbers in the sequence are composed of the addition of the two number before it.
For example:
1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21
1+1=2+3=5+3=8+5=13+8=21
Most recently, the Fibonacci sequence was featured in the book and movie The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown.

It provides visual examples of the fibonacci sequence in action, such as how the fibonacci spiral is created, etc. Enjoy!

the best answer to this question is that fibonacci sequence is a recursive function which call it self every time
in algebraic defintion x(n)= x(n-1) + x(n-2) where n is the term number. where only predefined terms are x0 = 0, x1 = 1..
other meaning is that the term number is equal to the previous number added to the previous previous number

it is the sequence of numbers that when u add the two previous numbers it will give you a sum which is equal to the next number..
...,-55 , 34, -21, 13, -8, 5, -3, 2, -1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55,...

A sequence made famous in the Da Vinci Code! Used to solve codes.

it's a series of numbers that is generated by adding the two that came before it starting with both ones.
1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55, etc.

1,1,2,3,5,8,13, 21....
Each term is derived from the addition of the preceding two terms.

1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21...k(i-1),k(i), k(i+1)...
with
k(i+1)=k(i)+k(i-1)
