Fibonacci

=Who was Fibonacci?=

Fibonacci was a great mathematician. His full name was Leonardo of Pisa. He was born in Pisa in Italia in 1175AD. He was the son of a Psion merchant who also served as a customs officer in North Africa. He travelled widely in Barbary (Algeria) and was later sent on business trips to Egypt, Syria, Greece, Sicily and Provence. Fibonacci was probably the greatest genius of number theory during the 2000 years between Diaphanous and Fermat.
