Leonardo
Pisano
Bigollo
was
an
Italian mathematician. He is usually better known by
his nickname, Fibonacci, and is considered to be
among the foremost European mathematicians of the
medieval era. He was instrumental in bringing the
widespread use of Arabic numerals to the West. The
Fibonacci number sequence is named after him,
although he merely referenced it rather than devising
it himself.
