Leonardo Fibonacci, also known as Leonardo of Pisa, likely received his education through his father's connections as a merchant in the Mediterranean trade. He was exposed to various mathematical concepts from different cultures, particularly through contact with Arab mathematicians, which influenced his work. Fibonacci studied in North Africa, where he learned about the Hindu-Arabic numeral system, which he later introduced to Europe in his famous book, "Liber Abaci." His education was a blend of practical mathematics and exposure to advanced mathematical ideas of his time.
Leonardo of Pisa, also known as Fibonacci.
1. Fibonacci's full name was Leonardo Pisano Bogolla, although he is also called Leonardo of Pisa, Leonardo Pisano, Leonardo Bonacci, or Leonardo Fibonacci.2. He is considered one of the best mathematicians of his time.3. He spread the Arabic numeral system to Europe when he published Liber Abaci in the early 1200's AD. If he hadn't done that, we might still be doing math using Roman numerals!4. He was born about 1170 AD, the son of an Italian merchant named Guglielmo Fibonacci.5. He did not discover the Fibonacci Sequence, although he did use it as an example in his book, the Liber Abaci.

The Fibonacci sequence, was first known by the ancient people of India. When Fibonacci travelled there in the 1200's he learnt it from them and then passed on his learning to the rest of Europe through his book, Liber Abaci.
Fibonacci was born in 1170 and died in the 1240's he now has a memorial next to the Leaning Tower of Pisa

It certainly did not. When experts scrutinized Leonardo,s sketchbooks in our days, the little bike-like sketch was discovered. Many experts believe it is a late addition by somebody else.

The sequence S = 2, 2, 4, 6, 10, 16, 26, ... is the Fibonacci sequence multiplied by 2. Like the Fibonacci sequence, each term is found by adding the two previous terms, so Sn = Sn-1 + Sn-2.
