gingernut Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Is it a circle? Ohh wait there, its a circle made up of numbers, oh wait there the numbers go up to 9. Im good at this pattern spotting lark Ginger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aurorablues Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 I see a circle, but the moment i saw the numbers, my brain drooled out my ears so no Aurora :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hummm_mabbe Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 It appears to be a fibonacci sequence, but with each number passed through a laplace transform and a differential equation. Its a bit circular too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Data Posted November 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Wow hummm_mabbe.. I am impressed... you obviously know your maths . The way I would explain it to people is that, going clockwise, each number is the last digit of the sum of the preceding two. For example.. start from the top: 3+6 = 9 6+9=15 (last digit is 5) 9+5=14 (last digit is 4) 5+4=9 4+9=13 (last digit is 3) 9+3=12 (last digit is 2) 5+2=5 Hence 3,6,9,5,4,9,3,2,5... My wife likes to wear necklaces with beads and I've often thought of getting 60 number beads and making this into some jewellery for her. She'd probably get stopped in the street by someone going "It appears to be a fibonacci sequence..." . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hummm_mabbe Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Hurrah! I have SOMETHING to show for 4 years of a mechanical engineering degree it seems lol Not that I can even remember how to do any of those things .... Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingernut Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 Auroroblues I think we were right in the non mathematical geek way. These two math geeks have to go around complicating things. Ginger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roses Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 I got the pattern but didn't know the technical/name stuff of it. *sobs* I'M NOT A GEEK??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hummm_mabbe Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 I got the pattern but didn't know the technical/name stuff of it. *sobs* I'M NOT A GEEK??? Noooooooo I just wrote down random names of things I remember from my degree! I didnt even bother to look for a pattern, so you are wayy cleverererer **looks admiringly, gasps, grins and clasps hands together at roses and blinks** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Data Posted November 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 It is the fibonacci sequence, modulo 10. I don't think it involves differential equations or laplace transforms. Perhaps if Roses can see the pattern she can make the necklace for my wife for xmas lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roses Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 ROFL I already have a bracelet in letter beads that Alora made me, it reads: "My mum is the best mum in the world" Perhaps your wife would be happy with one that reads... "My husband is so clever he knows what the Fibonacci sequence is" :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
