In mathematics, the Fibonacci numbers or Fibonacci series or Fibonacci sequence are the numbers in an integer sequence.
The Fibonacci sequence is named after Leonardo of Pisa, who was known as Fibonacci. Fibonacci's 1202 book Liber Abaci introduced the sequence to Western European mathematics, although the sequence had been described earlier in Indian mathematics.
