Fibonacci’s Soup (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) by sjmarf to c/[email protected]
 

Semi-related fun fact: The center of a KitKat is partly made of crushed off-cuts of the previous batch of KitKats. Which begs the question… what was the first KitKat made of?

It’s a joke about “The Fibonacci Sequence”. The Fibonacci sequence is a sequence of numbers. It starts with 0 and 1, and every subsequent number is the sum of the two numbers preceding it. So that first 10 terms are as follows:

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 33

The image shows an advertisement for “Fibonacci’s Soup”, which doesn’t actually exist. It claims to be made from a combination of the previous two days’ soup batches, in the same way that each number in Fibonacci’s sequence is the sum of the two numbers before it.
