Leonardo Fibonacci

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Fibonacci, Leonardo 

(also Leonardo of Pisa). Born circa 1170; died after 1228. Italian mathematician.

Traveling in the East, Fibonacci became acquainted with the achievements of Arab mathematicians and made them known to the West. His principal works were Liber abaci (1202)—a treatise on arithmetic (Hindu numbers, Fibonacci numbers) and algebra (up to quadratic equations inclusively)—and Practica geometriae (1220). These are the first works to contain problems involving the application of algebra to geometry.
