People with this personality type have no difficulties noticing patterns where others cannot – this makes them brilliant theorists and

The Discovery of the Fibonacci Sequence A man named Leonardo Pisano‚ who was known by his nickname‚ "Fibonacci"‚ and named the series after himself‚ first discovered the Fibonacci sequence around 1200 A.D. The Fibonacci sequence is a sequence in which each term is the sum of the 2 numbers preceding it. The first 10 Fibonacci numbers are: (1‚ 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ 5‚ 8‚ 13‚ 21‚ 34‚ 55‚ 89). These numbers are obviously recursive. Fibonacci was born around 1170 in Italy‚ and he died around 1240 in Italy

Suppose a newly-born pair of rabbits‚ one male‚ one female‚ are put in a field. Rabbits are able to mate at the age of one month so that at the end of its second month a female can produce another pair of rabbits. Suppose that our rabbits never dieand that the female always produces one new pair (one male‚ one female) every month from the second

Rate and Sequences of development All children grow and develop in the same sort of order‚ but they do not all happen in the same rate or sequence. Some children’s development is slower than others so they may be behind other children. The rate of development is the speed at which the child develops. Children all develop in the same order‚ but not always at the same rate. For example the stages of walking happen at different times for different children. Some may crawl for longer than others
