Fibonacci Sequence

The document discusses the Fibonacci Sequence, which is generated by summing the two preceding numbers, and introduces Binet's Formula for calculating the nth term. It also differentiates between finite and infinite sequences, providing examples of various number patterns. Additionally, it highlights the Golden Ratio as a tool for finding terms in the Fibonacci Sequence.

The Golden Ratio is a special number which is
approximately equal to 1.618034 and may be used to find
the nth term of a Fibonacci Sequence using the Binet’s
Formula.

A sequence may be finite or infinite. The Fibonacci sequence
is an infinite sequence. A finite sequence has a definite number
of terms. A list of numbers which form a pattern is called a
sequence. Number patterns may be described by examining
how the terms are being generated.
A pattern may have a list of numbers in which a constant
number is added to get the succeeding terms. For other
sequences, the terms are increasing because the number to be
added is increasing in a predictable way. There are number
patterns whose terms are decreasing, because the number to
be added is decreasing in an expected way.
To generate the next term, the number to be
