This article is a very brief description of the subject.
It is not intended to give a full scientific explanation
Please see the "see also" or "references" sections for further explanation. The golden ratio golden number golden section (when applied to the division of a line) or has been known for millennia. It is defined as "the ratio between two numbers such that the lesser is to the greater as the greater is to the sum" The golden section: The golden ratio applied to the division of a line A:B = B:(A+B) B:A = φ = 1.61803398874989484820458683436563811772030917980576 (approx) Its exact value is
It has generally been thought to be pleasing and harmonious to human perception and is the basis of much classical architecture. The usage of the Greek letter phi to represent the golden ratio was suggested by mathematician Mark Barr from the first letter of Phidias (ancient Greek, Φειδίας), the sculptor who was alleged to have used it in creating statues for the Parthenon. The golden number (or an approximation) appears often in nature and is the convergent point of the ratio of successive terms of the Fibonacci sequence A rectangle with the ratio of opposite sides equal to the golden ratio. It is supposedly particularly pleasant, visually.

Jump to: navigation search The golden ratio is a number, commonly known as phi ( ), defined as . The value of phi is Phi is an irrational number . In decimal form it is often written The golden ratio was first defined by Euclid of Alexandria around 300BC. His definition reads: A straight line is said to have been cut in extreme and mean ratio when, as the whole line is to the greater segment, so is the greater to the lesser.

edit The golden ratio in nature and art
The golden ratio appears in innumerable places in nature and art. The periods of the planets are all related by the golden ratio. The proportions of the bodies of many animals, including humans, dolphins, and ants are all based on the golden ratio. The Parthenon Egyptian Pyramids The Last Supper Ark of the Covenant ... Noah's ark , and even the common credit card are all based on the golden ratio. A dodecahedron, a solid in which each side is a pentagon, is related to the Golden Ratio in that both the surface area and the volume of a dodecahedron of unit edge length are functions of the Golden Ratio. Plato described the dodecahedron as the solid which the gods used for embroidering the constellation on the whole heaven.

Playing with Fibonacci in Visualization Layout Algorithms
Jan 14 2008 - 1:32am The Fibonacci numbers are part of a sequence where each number is the sum of the two previous numbers. The first two numbers are ones so the sequence starts out like this: I won't get into the details but the Fibonacci sequence , the Golden Ratio , and the Golden Angle are all related and interesting and occur in various places in nature. When I heard about this I stashed a couple constants in my MathUtils class and played around with ways to use them for visualizations. That tomfoolery resulted in the following little app: This Flash movie is the result of playing with layout algorithms using the Golden Angle. The combobox lets you control the numbers that get highlighted, revealing some of the spirals that appear in the pattern.

the Golden Ratio and the Fibonacci series (Perl program)
I've been re-reading Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code lately, and I was intrigued by the Golden Ratio and how it relates to the Fibonacci series. The Fibonacci series is such that each term is the sum of the previous two terms:
The ratio of consecutive terms in the Fibonacci series converges on the Golden Ratio, which has a value of approximately 1.618. It also shows up in a geometric analysis of the pentacle. These properties are discussed in mathematical detail on the following Web pages:
the Golden Ratio

pentacle geometry

I wanted to see this from a computational point of view, so I wrote a quick Perl program to compute the Fibonacci numbers and ratios out to around 100 terms. The program prints out deviations from the Golden Ratio, and the output shows a near-zero deviation after less than 40 terms.

I have all ready displaide this image in the previous links thread but I would like to now take this a step further and show you a few more of the links.
The Great Pyramids of Egypt were all aligned to the Dog Star, Sirius. It is infact not one star but a cluster of 5 stars arrainged in a circle. If you draw a line between each star you can make a pentagram.
As I have already said Venus has an eight year cycle which when plotted draws a perfect pentagram in the sky. This image of the pentagram can be found in many forms in many different cultures. Bethra April 19th, 2005, 03:15 PM As I have perviously said the original Olypmic games were dedicated to Venus and were held every eight years in line with her eight year orbitary cycle. The original emblem of the Olympic games was a Pentical. The whole of the games were a cellibration held in the name of the Goddess Venus. At the introduction of Christianity the Olympic offichials decided to change the original emblem as it had far too many Pagan implications. They opted instead for the shape we now know today. The five rings interlocking. The five rings still symbolise the five points of the pentagram. Bethra April 19th, 2005, 03:28 PM

    dmath: Math routines for Python's arbitrary-precision Decimal type
    posted by brian at 03:27 PM Yesterday Chris and I spent all day writing math functions for Python's Decimal type . The result is our new dmath library, available on Google Code and the Cheese Shop under the MIT/X11 license. Sparked by the routine for atan in my last post , I decided it wouldn't be too hard to go ahead and do the rest of the functions already offered by math and cmath . We now have acos asin atan ceil cos cosh degrees e exp floor hypot log pi pow radians sign sin sinh sqrt tan , and tanh Check it out: We're calling this release 0.9 because it just needs some testing and maybe some speed improvements, otherwise it's ready to use. There is currently some work being done in Python sandbox/trunk to convert the decimal module to C, and maybe they'll include fast versions of all these routines. But hey, you can use these right now! Arbitrary precision is one of the coolest things in programming. We spent a lot of time in
