One example of their application involves mating rabbits, while the ratio between consecutive numbers of this type approaches the golden ratio.
The closed-form expression for these numbers is known as Binet's formula. The sum of the first n minus 2 of these numbers is equal to the nth of them minus one. One example of their application involves mating rabbits, while the ratio between consecutive numbers of this type approaches the golden ratio. For 10 points, identify this series of numbers which take their value from the sum of the two preceding numbers, beginning with the terms 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8.
