Fibonacci came up with a series of numbers based on starting with 0,1 and then adding the preceding two together:
0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987
If you divide any of these numbers by the one before it you come up with 1.61803 - it works better with the bigger numbers for accuracy's sake.
This number series was used to answer specific math problems/questions and later the 1.61 ratio or "golden section" began to be explored in nature, architecture, and other areas.
I wonder if that ratio could be found in some fashion in certain sections of golf holes that are generally considered good or pleasing.
