Study Notes

Fibonacci Sequence Properties

  • The Fibonacci sequence starts with 0 and 1, and each subsequent number is the sum of the two preceding ones.
  • Not every number in the Fibonacci sequence is a prime number. Many Fibonacci numbers are composite, meaning they have factors other than 1 and themselves.
  • The Golden Ratio ϕ is equal to (1+√5)/2, an irrational number approximately equal to 1.618.
  • Binet's Formula is a closed-form expression that allows direct calculation of any Fibonacci number without having to calculate all the preceding numbers.
  • The ratio F(n) / F(n-2) in the Fibonacci sequence approaches the Golden Ratio as n increases. This is an important property that connects the sequence to this fundamental mathematical constant.
