Celebrating Fibonacci Day

November 23rd has been named Fibonacci Day since 11-23 doubles as the date’s abbreviation and the first numbers in the Fibonacci Sequence (1, 1, 2, 3…). The Italian mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci used this sequence in lots of wacky ways–from predicting the population growth of rabbits to exploring the “golden ratio” formed between two consecutive numbers in the sequence.
