Two of the most important concepts that can be found in the world of mathematics and nature are the Fibonacci sequence and the golden ratio.

These two concepts seem separate, but they're actually tightly intertwined.

While they've been known since the ancient world, they're still highly relevant today and can be found almost everywhere.

And best of all, despite being important mathematical concepts,

they're also among the easiest to understand.

Before I get into the history and the applications of the Fibonacci sequence and the golden

ratio, I should probably explain what they are because they're actually pretty easy to understand. The Fibonacci sequence of the Golden Ratio. I should probably explain what they are because they're

actually pretty easy to understand. The Fibonacci sequence is formed by starting with the numbers

0 and 1, and then adding each pair of previous numbers to get the next one. So 0 plus 1 is 1. 1. 1 is 2. 2 plus 1 is 3. 3 plus 2 is 5. 5 plus 3 is 8. And you can just keep doing this

forever, adding the last 2 digits. The next would be 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, etc.

And that's all there is to it.

Any child who knows basic addition can calculate the Fibonacci sequence.

The golden ratio is an irrational number that is close to the number 1..618033-9887, extending out to infinity in a non-repeating

series of numbers. Simple addition and an irrational number hardly seem like they have something

in common, but as we'll see, they actually do. The mathematical

relationship that we call the golden ratio was actually known to ancient civilization long before
