I have wasted my life 🙁 I wouldn't of known what a Febunachi sequence was at 13 let alone spotted it in trees!
I know what a Fibonacci sequence is, but I wouldn't have known it when I was thirteen. Multi-petalled flowers use it, which is why you get that spiral appearance, which is also how trees grow, spiralling the branches to ensure maximum sunlight exposure to the leaves.
I've got a set of Fibonacci rings, spacers for getting a single-speed cog exactly in line with the chain-ring.
Useful thing, nature. 😀
When i was 13 i was out on my bike looking for porno's in the hedgerow.
