In honor of Fibonacci Day, I asked CK if he’d mind employing the famous mathematician’s namesake sequence to determine my rate of pay from one year to the next. After all, trying to figure out whether I’ve actually earned a raise is a fairly subjective exercise, and relying on cost-of-living indices seems a bit arbitrary. Pretty sure he’ll be on board. Because science.
In the mean time, you can celebrate the holiday by exploring the “Mathematical Magic of the Fibonacci Numbers” here. (The section on Pascal’s Triangle is particularly riveting.) Math not really your thing? Learn how to compose a Fib. Or just kick back, crack open a cold one, and stare at this.
