Title: Fibonacci series
Post by: abejaruco on November 21, 2006, 01:43:37 PM
You can find any information about Fibonacci on the web. This mathematic discovered that Nature uses any number series to optimize the space, so, you will find a serie that is repeated. 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13...
Here I post two photos, the first show how the citrus optimize the space and use the number 5, the next is a "racimo de pomelos" grapefruit bunch with 8 pomelos.
