a b Fibonacci's Liber Abaci, translated by Sigler, Laurence E., Springer-Verlag, 2002, ISBN 0-387-95419-8 In the hour zone we can find one labeled circle (PM) to indicate when the current hour is on the second 12-hour period (from noon to midnight).

In the Liber Abaci (1202), Fibonacci introduced the so-called modus Indorum (method of the Indians), today known as the Hindu–Arabic numeral system, [25] [26] with ten digits including a zero and positional notation. The book showed the practical use and value of this by applying the numerals to commercial bookkeeping, converting weights and measures, calculation of interest, money-changing, and other applications. The book was well-received throughout educated Europe and had a profound impact on European thought. Replacing Roman numerals, its ancient Egyptian multiplication method, and using an abacus for calculations, was an advance in making business calculations easier and faster, which assisted the growth of banking and accounting in Europe.

Led strip 4 (leds4 in the arduino sketch) with 9 leds (it is used to light the labeled circles: 12,24,36,48,pm) Fibonacci travelled around the Mediterranean coast, meeting with many merchants and learning about their systems of doing arithmetic. [18] He soon realised the many advantages of the Hindu-Arabic system, which, unlike the Roman numerals used at the time, allowed easy calculation using a place-value system. In 1202, he completed the Liber Abaci ( Book of Abacus or The Book of Calculation), [19] which popularized Hindu–Arabic numerals in Europe. [6] See the incipit of Flos: "Incipit flos Leonardi bigolli pisani..." (quoted in the MS Word document Sources in Recreational Mathematics: An Annotated Bibliography by David Singmaster, 18 March 2004 – emphasis added), in English: "Here starts 'the flower' by Leonardo the wanderer of Pisa..." Liber Abaci posed and solved a problem involving the growth of a population of rabbits based on idealized assumptions. The solution, generation by generation, was a sequence of numbers later known as Fibonacci numbers. Although Fibonacci's Liber Abaci contains the earliest known description of the sequence outside of India, the sequence had been described by Indian mathematicians as early as the sixth century.

Fibonacci was born around 1170 to Guglielmo, an Italian merchant and customs official. [7] Guglielmo directed a trading post in Bugia (Béjaïa), in modern-day Algeria, the capital of the Hammadid empire. [16] Fibonacci travelled with him as a young boy, and it was in Bugia (Algeria) where he was educated that he learned about the Hindu–Arabic numeral system. [17] [6]Colin Pask (7 July 2015).
