Hey alain, who are you talking to when you say "You'll learn limits in grade 11/12"? Because I've already taken the highest level calculus at my school. Also, we didn't discuss fibonacci in my calculus class.

It's spelled fibonacci.

And yes, I could have said n / (n - 1) rather than (n + 1) / n, but they are identical, so it doesn't really matter. They are equal, or so close to equal that it doesn't even matter. What's the diff? I'd rather say n + 1, because what if n is 1? We're going to divide by the 0th term? Or even worse, if n is 0... the -1th term?

Edit: I realize that only one of those possibilities will work (and I'm not sure which, because I don't know if sequences have a 0th term), but I'm just saying, using n + 1 is generally safer, isn't it?
