  2. Fibonacci sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_sequence

    This sequence of numbers of parents is the Fibonacci sequence. The number of ancestors at each level, F n, is the number of female ancestors, which is F n−1, plus the number of male ancestors, which is F n−2. [91] [92] This is under the unrealistic assumption that the ancestors at each level are otherwise unrelated.

  3. Generalizations of Fibonacci numbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalizations_of...

    A Fibonacci sequence of order n is an integer sequence in which each sequence element is the sum of the previous elements (with the exception of the first elements in the sequence). The usual Fibonacci numbers are a Fibonacci sequence of order 2.

  4. Fibonacci search technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_search_technique

    Let k be defined as an element in F, the array of Fibonacci numbers. n = F m is the array size. If n is not a Fibonacci number, let F m be the smallest number in F that is greater than n. The array of Fibonacci numbers is defined where F k+2 = F k+1 + F k, when k ≥ 0, F 1 = 1, and F 0 = 1. To test whether an item is in the list of ordered ...

  5. Fibonacci - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci

    In the Fibonacci sequence, each number is the sum of the previous two numbers. Fibonacci omitted the "0" and first "1" included today and began the sequence with 1, 2, 3, ... . He carried the calculation up to the thirteenth place, the value 233, though another manuscript carries it to the next place, the value 377. [34] [35] Fibonacci did not ...

  6. Lagged Fibonacci generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagged_Fibonacci_generator

    A Lagged Fibonacci generator (LFG or sometimes LFib) is an example of a pseudorandom number generator. This class of random number generator is aimed at being an improvement on the 'standard' linear congruential generator. These are based on a generalisation of the Fibonacci sequence. The Fibonacci sequence may be described by the recurrence ...

  7. Lucas pseudoprime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucas_pseudoprime

    A Fibonacci pseudoprime is often [2]: 264, [3]: 142, [4]: 127 defined as a composite number n not divisible by 5 for which congruence holds with P = 1 and Q = −1. By this definition, the Fibonacci pseudoprimes form a sequence:

  8. Pisano period - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pisano_period

    For generalized Fibonacci sequences (satisfying the same recurrence relation, but with other initial values, e.g. the Lucas numbers) the number of occurrences of 0 per cycle is 0, 1, 2, or 4. The ratio of the Pisano period of n and the number of zeros modulo n in the cycle gives the rank of apparition or Fibonacci entry point of n .

  9. Zeckendorf's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeckendorf's_theorem

    Each rectangle has a Fibonacci number F j as width (blue number in the center) and F j−1 as height. The vertical bands have width 10. The vertical bands have width 10. In mathematics , Zeckendorf's theorem , named after Belgian amateur mathematician Edouard Zeckendorf , is a theorem about the representation of integers as sums of Fibonacci ...
