Number patterns and the Fibonacci sequence

Maths is all about discovering patterns, trying to find out how they work and using them to help us.

Sequences are examples of number patterns and they can be pretty straight forward such as the 2 x table:

0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, ...

or they can be more complex such as:

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, ...

This sequence is really interesting and it turns up all over the place, especially  in nature. It was first explored by Leonardo of Pisa, nicknamed Fibonacci.
