From pine cones to spiral galaxies, fascinating patterns of the Fibonacci sequence occur naturally in nature. Find out how this ancient sequence manifests in our world and beyond. Nature is disordered ...

One of the curious properties of mathematics is its beauty. But exactly what mathematicians mean by beauty is hard to capture. Perhaps the most famous example is Euler’s relation, e iπ + 1 = 0, which ...

A pattern or a sequence is a set of numbers that are connected in some way. All sequences have a rule. For example, sometimes the numbers might count on by 5 each time, other times they might be ...

Number sequences are sets of numbers that follow a pattern or a rule. Each number in a sequence is called a term. A sequence which increases or decreases by the same amount each time is called a ...

Some strange mathematical sequences are always whole numbers — until they’re not. The puzzling patterns have revealed ties to graph theory and prime numbers, awing mathematicians. Simple, yes, but ...

For more than 50 years, the mathematician Neil Sloane has curated the authoritative collection of interesting and important integer sequences. Neil Sloane is considered by some to be one of the most ...
