Fibonacci and Fibonacci-type Sequences: In Search of Innovative Pattern Recognition

Main Article Content

ARCHISMAN NANDY

Abstract

The main objective of this paper is to search for an innovative pattern along with derivations connected to Fibonacci Series. Lucid proofs and clear explanations have been provided in this study to derive the pattern which has been conceptualized in this study, thus reducing the complexions and simplifying the Fibonacci formula in solving different problems connected to the Fibonacci series as well as Fibonacci-type sequences. In this paper further validation has also been made with the help of the induction method in the context of the new formula which has been conceptualized in this study. The novelty of this study is to contribute new knowledge to the existing knowledge which will serve the purpose of the Fibonacci series as well as the Fibonacci-type series with the help of the newly conceptualized formula.
