Fibonacci was a medieval mathematician who studied the Hindu-Arabic system of numbers. His experiments with calculating numbers and observing patterns found in nature resulted in his number series (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144...) that often reveals itself in the natural arrangement of flower petals.
