What is the Fibonacci Sequence and why is it so intriguing?

[Leopold Infeld]

I want to know more about the Fibonacci Sequence. I have read some about it but I still don't know all about. Can anyone tell me something about it or refer me to some good sites about it?

Here's a good one:

This one's a bit more technical:

The Wikipedia Site Didnt work

Do you guys have a much more rigorous site, something of a research level?
Not that i would understand but i like collecting hard maths documents.

Very much appreciated.

What was wrong with Wikipedia?

The Wikipedia site worked for me. Check the links at the bottom of the Wiki page, the have a few including one to the Fibbonacci Quarterly journal.

The Mathworld page has a pretty exensive looking list of references, you might want to peruse them.

Sorry, Wikpedia worked the next time I connected.
Do u guys know how to download a whole thread into a hard disk?
I tried the link given by PF but it gave me a text file, and saving the page by my browser didnt produce the LaTex graphics offline. Again,

Much Appreciated
