1.618 has been called "Nature’s Number", the "Golden Ratio" or the "Golden Number". Pythagoras wrote that “it manifests in the whole of creation”. 1.618 can be seen in flowers, sea creatures, music, art, architecture and in human morphology and physiology. It is second only to "pi" in its ubiquitousness.
1.618 can be obtained by taking ANY two numbers and adding them to make a third (say 2 + 4 = 6), then adding the second and third to make a fourth (4 + 6 = 10), etc... The Italian mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci in the 12th century began the sequence with zero and obtained 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, 2584, 4181, 6765, 10946 . . . Each of these numbers is known as a "Fibonacci Number" and the sequence as a whole is the "Fibonacci Sequence"
