This is a famous sequence (series) that has many applications in nature, art, etc.

The first few terms are..... 0 , 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13.....

Notice that, afer the first two given terms, each successive term is just the sum of the previous two...!!

Here's an excellent resource for a tremendous amount of info about the Fibonacci Series.....http://www.maths.surrey.ac.uk/hosted-sites/R.Knott/Fibonacci/fibmaths.html#relprime
