Numberphile is this and old video? Matt has shaved his head on his channel
At 7:23 you made a small mistake because the very next line is not an exact statement, but an approximation, which is only true for n going to infinity.
@@SaborSalek watch the whole video before commenting please
+PlopKonijn
I did. He mentions it but he doesn't acknowledge that this video is kind of pointless because he wants to prove his point by using the same trick (approximating) he did last time - which he was criticized for by the Reddit user.
@@SaborSalek no he does acknowledge it. He talks about the rounding error.
Matt has two expressions: pleased with himself, and displeased with someone else

The Lucas numbers should be classified as a Parker Sequence due to their almost correctness.
THIS is the real burn. Well played.
The video is 11:23 long, what an ingenious "coincidence"!
You must be on mobile... It adds another second for no reason.. Sorry to tell the video is actually 11:22 long...

”5 is the only Fibonacci number that’s equal to its position.”
1: ”Am I a joke to you?”
IMO, the fibo numbers start with 0, 1. So no fibo # is equal to its position
@@teunvandiedenhoven1105 That is true, if you consider 0 to be Fibonacci number #1; rather, than Fibonacci number #0. Matt was considering the fibo numbers to start from 1, 1,…, in which case, both 1 and 5 would meet the criteria; although, either way, 1 occupies 2 positions (#0 & #1, or #1 & #2).
1's the Schrödinger's Fibonacci number; literally in the right place and the wrong place at once.
Not to mention 0, the 0th Fibonacci number.
@@teunvandiedenhoven1105 they do start with 0, but they start with the 0th number in the sequence, not the 1st.
That Parker Square at 6:05
Sneaky bastards
I think that's the same one from a different angle…
Soon after, the link to merch appeared.
@2:40
The op was referring to the one that flashed onto the picture on the wall at 6:05, not the one on the desk.
7:23 I am calling Matt out on this hidden and sneaky rounding.
YES I thought the same thing hahah
explain plz i am curious
@@goutamboppana961 The golden ratio doesn't equal exactly the next Fib. number divided by the current. The division between consecutive Fibonacci numbers is an approximation of the golden ratio, and if you assume it's exactly the same, you get the result Mr. Parker is showing. There's the sneaky rounding!
Matt admits his hidden and sneaky rounding at 9:51
What an exciting time to be alive
How are you verified?
Why are you verified?
I've never laughed so hard at a Numberphile video. As soon as I realized Matt was circling back to his favored Lucas sequence I lost it. That delivery was perfect Matt!
I feel like Lucas numbers versus Fibonacci numbers debate is kind of like pi versus tau...both of some advantages but they're closely related so it doesn't really matter which one
*pi vs tau
@@harshsrivastava9570 oops typo thanks
Yup, reminded me of that debate as well, minus the little difference how Parker was on the popular side of the argument with Pi vs Tau (picking Pi's side) whereas here he's in the less popular side, fighting against the very common/very popular Fibonacci sequence and the Golden Ratio, lol. We've seen him tackle this topic before though too so the opinions he expressed here weren't too surprising given that us long time viewers already knew what to expect ;)
“so it doesn’t really matter which one”
...except pi is superior.
I used to think π was better but then I did complex analysis and the amount of times you have to write 2π is annoying
As a math student named Lucas, I cannot describe how amazing it feels to have the great Matt Parker describe why Lucas numbers are better than Fibonacci numbers...
Matt: 5 is the only fibonacci number equal to its position
First fibonacci number: they ask you how you are, and you just have to say you're fine when you're not really fine, but you ...
I guess that’s, what we call: a ”Parker Fun Fact” 😅.
"Proxy Pylon" is actually the name of an opening gambit you can perform in the StarCraft/StarCraft 2 games. It's considered to be a 'cheap' tactic, so I'm glad you weren't beaten by it :D
and "ze" probably means "the".. and we need additional pylons!
I am so glad someone caught that! My life for Aiur!
Actually "proxy something" refers to basically any production facility (or a pylon) placed strategically outside your base to either conceal your plans or shorten the time needed for your units to reach the desired position. It can be used in a cheesy way to one-base someone into oblivion but these are also common during the middle and sometimes even late game. Proxy pylons especially.
I was waiting with bated breath for someone who knew more SCII stuff to give me the deep dive on the strats like this. Thanks :P
The meaning of his account was the only part of the video I could understand.
Oh, Matt is admitting he is wrong... wait! He's turned it around! He is right again!! Hooray!!! (I'm a fan of Matt Parker, in case you didn't notice.)
That "plot twist" is so beautiful.
Just a abusing an equal sign here or there
Yeah, irrational number equals integer. Hrmmmm.
And then he was wrong again
Parker square...
6:50 "5 is the only Fibonacci number which is equal to its position"... what about 1?
1,1 so 1's position is first AND second so it's position is 1.5 and it's approximately 2
"so it's position is 1.5 and it's approximately 2"
Wow, hold your horses! I was here to do maths, not physics :P
@@amxx if u watch favremysabre when u say horses the horse that talks is Lucas
So its like a joke
That is a trivial case.
Did anybody else feel a little thrill of anticipation when Matt said “let’s generalize it and call it a day”? Like, oh boy, can’t wait to see how he burns the internet back :D
I did 😅.
Matts hair grew back!
The sequence of Matts head tending towards a sphere is not convergent, it turns out.
Only some of it :P
Some of it at least ;)
What happened to it in the first place? I seem yo be living under a rock
This is probably an earlier recording before he shaved it.
We he said F_n*phi= F_n+1, he was rounding. That's only true as n tends to infinity.
Exactly!!!! It wasn't a good burn
Yeah, good that other people also caught it. We should upvote all the comments that mention this so that Matt and Brady realize it.
Theo_Caro YES ! Oh my god ! I was like WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HE DOING ??
He said that in the end ^^
He even said that himself. But at least, there's a comment for the system. gj
I am quite happy that Matt did another Numberphile. He has a very nice presentation.
No that was an unexpected turn of events. Always finding new ways to never admitting defeat. 👏😂
Matt, you are a true man's man! 👍
A true math's man.
I don't know which is better, Matt's epic comeback or the fact that this video is exactly 11:23 minutes long...
Why the Fibonacci numbers are better: if you stop the continued fraction of the golden ratio at finite points, you get ratios of Fibonacci numbers
There's a lot of reaching in both arguments methinks 😂
FutureNow Hey when are you going to start making more videos?
notKARTHIK. Hey, so my upload schedule right now is roughly once per month so there will be a new video by this weekend.
welcome to arguments in the internet
Well technically you reaching tending towards infinity and then it works perfectly yeah.
Maybe he just wants to be Golden ratio'd.
9:24 classic parker joke
I remember this back when it was posted on his subreddit over an year ago, it took you guys a long time to get around to it.
Both approaches are awesome. Mind blown.
Today getting video from 3Blue1Brown and Numberphile😍😍😍
That is nice
How dare you admit that you were wrong without comparing your oponent to Hitler , this is not how internet arguments are supposed to work!
"It turns into a bit of a philosophical discussion about the square root of five" is a phrase you just KNOW involves Matt Parker somehow.
I was waiting for it, Matt did not disappoint.
Looks like he was more of an Artosis Pylon.
1. Matt thinks Lucas numbers are better than Fibonacci numbers
2. Lucas numbers are better because otherwise you need to split it into 2 sets of fibonacci numbers to accomplish the same thing
3. You need two sets of pi to get Tau
4. Tau must be better than Pi because otherwise you need to split it into 2pi to accomplish the same thing
5. Matt must think that Tau is better than Pi.

They're good sequences, Brent.
So doesn't that mean the Fibonacci numbers generate the Lucas numbers which makes them (the Fibonacci numbers) more fundamental?
Yes, but I don't think Parker likes highlighting that little aspect... ;)
That depends on the point of view. You can also turn this statement around and say the opposite.
From my limited observations, adding the Lucas Numbers in the same way gives you the fibonacci sequence multiplied by 5.
I love it that the moment Matt said he always admits when he's wrong, a link popped up for Parker Square merchandise :D Well played.
GOSH I LOVE THIS CHANNEL AND I LOVE MATH
It's almost as if the Lucas Number are BASED on the Fibonacci Numbers!
It's actually the other way around
How so?
Harsh Srivastava Fibonacci published his number in Liber Abaci in 1202.
beirirangu CAPITALIZING words doesn’t make your ARGUMENT any better
But if you do the same with Lucas numbers you get Fibbonacci numbers. Well, multiplied by 5, but still.
So Fibbonacci numbers are based on Lucas numbers, wich are based on Fibbonacci numbers wich are ba...
~[1 infinity later]~
In fact, in similar way it's possbile to construct any Fibbonacci sequence from any other you (just need to multiply these numbers by some factors) for example to make the third sequence (3,1,4,5... (I forgot the name)) from Fibbonacci you need to take a Fibbonaci number, multiply by 5, then add the prevoius one multiplied by -2
I am not convinced I am on zeproxypylon's side on this one that rounding step is just too ugly for me.
p.s.: this new argument is almost like a parker square.
6:05 love the "That's a classic Parker Square move" in the upper right!
4:00 Well, surely 'not very precise' and 'rough and ready' are familiar terms for Matt 'Parker Square' Parker.
I still think that hidden rounding effort counts as cheating. zeproxypylon gets my vote
100% agree
Yep! He does exactly the same rounding by saying F_n*phi = F_(n+1). Zeproxypylon is correct
Right. Even worse when one tries to hide it: I don't have to round. Oh, look, a squirrel! *trick*
i'd have to disagree on that because the earliest number aren't of much interest if you want a precise value of the golden number.
We are talking about converging speed and we can see that in fact this series converge faster to the golden number than the fibonachi one.
thus you'd need less calculus to approach the rounded value to the n-th decimal to get it hence its usefulness.
edit: though a bit of mathematic rigor would be welcomed as his demonstrations reminds me of how i did maths in HS...
recouer, actually it's about elegance I think. As how much less precise calculus than (1+sqrt(5))/2 (which is exactly phi) do you want?
"five is the only Fibonacci number that is equal to its position"
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it start with one?
The Parker Square merch card at 6:00 when he admitted he was wrong was hysterical.
Omg Matt. I think you summoned the evil know :-) Very nice Video. I love that "Burned with your own arguments"-discussions :-) Thanks
Unless you can get the Lucas numbers out of Pascal's Triangle more simply than the Fibonacci sequence, Fibonacci wins hands down.
I have used a spreadsheet to work out which fractions m/n best approximate to the golden ratio as n increases.
For n=1, the closest approximation is 2/1. For n=2 it is 3/2. For n=3 it is 5/3. For n=4 there is no approximation better than 5/3. For n=5 the closest approximation is 8/5. The next n which produces a closer approximation is n=8, for which 13/8 becomes the best approximation to the golden ratio. After that better approximations are achieved by is 21/13 and then 34/21.
I didn't continue the spreadsheet any further. It is the Fibonacci numbers which are clearly providing the best approximations. 34/21 is accurate to within 0.0010 whereas (for example) 47/29 is out by 0.0026
Yes, this fact is actually obvious because of the continued fraction of the golden ratio.
Brilliant video again!
I can't imagine Numberphile without the markers and brown paper, but by God the sound it makes is like nails on a chalkboard for me!!
7:30 Fn + φ = F(n+1)? That doesn't sound right.
L_n = phi^n + (1 - phi)^n
the true "no rounding" version
The generalized sequence also works in reverse, to find Fibonacci numbers with indexes zero or lower. Before seeing this, I never thought to go in the other direction. Pretty neat!
"Let's celebrate your victory like any other mathematician: generalising it-"
*_Gets some popcorns_*
If Lucas numbers are the Fn+1 and the Fn-1 together, then their origin is Fibbonnaci (himachandra). There is no debate.
Circular reasoning. You've assumed that the Fibbonnaci numbers have been pre-defined in order to define the Lucas numbers.
You can just as easily do the reverse, and define the Fibbonnaci numbers in terms of the Lucas numbers.
But in my view, what makes the Fibbonnaci numbers more basic, is that they use the recursion that both sequences use, but with the simplest non-trivial starter pair: (0, 1).
Every sequence a(n) that uses the Fibbonnaci recursion, can be written as a linear function of F(n) and F(n-1).
And in particular, every integer sequence a(n) that uses that recursion, can be written as an integer linear function of F(n).
Fred
No, you can't assume that Fn*phi = Fn+1. That would be rounding since the ratio between Fn and Fn+1 only aproaches phi. You can only get the lucas numbers by doing some kind of rounding.
Edit: Wait, you talked about it
I saw the rounding :P
I didn't expect that conclusion, though. That was great.
“A bit fuzzy and almosty” - so it was the Parker Square basically.
10:34 classic parker phrase
Kind of a null point since you can just generalise the Lucas numbers back into the Fibonacci numbers; personally, I'm with zeproxypylon on this since he was actually able to get Matt Parker to admit he was wrong (sort of).
You can take any of the sequences and add the surrounding digits to forma new one. For example, the Lucas numbers, using the same formula, generate 5,5,10,15,25,40 and so on, which then can generate 15,20,35,55,90
Also, if you work out the simple formula, you get: a,a+b,2a+b,3a+2b,5a+3b,8a+5b, and so on, giving you two more sets of Fibonacci numbers
I saw that coming, but still, it was amazing!
This was fantastic
So the biggest take away from this is closing your eyes and rounding in prayer will give you any set of numbers you like to fit any argument! See I can maths two!
The Lucas numbers do NOT satisfy L_n = round(phi^n) for all n, since L_1 = 1 does not equal round(phi^1) = 2.
those parker square popups are so much on point in all your videos
200 years ago the title would be an enigma
Fibonacci numbers are just Parker Lucas numbers
It still involves rounding, so is complete rubbish. You haven't thrown a gauntlet, you've just waved gauntleted hands.
Reflecting on ones own mistakes is a most beautiful thing.
I love the Parker Square flashing up there for a split second. XD
7:23 - Parker Generalisation. I don't believe that F(n) * Phi = F(n+1), because as already explained in the video, the golden ratio is what the Fibonacci numbers tend to as a ratio between them, so does not yield perfect results prior to infinity, which is quite a lot of numbers, to say the least, so will not be a correct generalisation due to inaccuracy.
Let's take the 5th number. The 5th Fibonacci number is 5. Phi ^ 5 = 11.0901699.... Using the Parker Generalisation: F(n+1) + F(n-1), we get 3 + 8 = 11. Of course, 11 ≠ 11.0901699... So we have proven this to be wrong.
Edit: nevermind... Didn't watch till 10:00.
6:15, “Let’s do what we do to celebrate in mathematics, we try to generalise them”.
You know Matt’s got something up his sleeve when he says this 😂😂
I love that when Parker admits he is wrong @6:08 the card pops up saying: *want to buy some Parkersquare merchandise?*
Love it!
This is a fun little back and forth. And in the end... it just turns out to be one of those things not worth arguing about, because EVERYONE IS RIGHT. We all tend to have a preference for things we are most familiar with - we get to stay more in our "comfort zone." Doesn't make us "right" and someone else "wrong."
Johnny joestar knows the golden ratio
Sir Lagsalot Is this a fibonacci reference?
What a slow dancer
Watched the whole video and I have one question...
Where's the beef?
Sebastian Elytron 😂😂
on the parker grill.
Someone just rounded it down
Sebastian Elytron That has to come with a sequence known as Narayana's Cows (OEIS A000930) with a recurrence Cn = Cn-1 + Cn-3. The ratio between successive terms is approx. 1.4656. We could call that the Beefy ratio designated by the Greek character Moo. Moo^2 - Moo = 1/Moo
Watch part 2.
That was some nice math judo, Matt. Taking your opponent's argument and revealing that it is actually an argument in your favor.
That blew my mind
You made a mistake! phi^n is not equal to F(n+1)+F(n-1), it's only approaching at +inf. So Fibonacci is still better.
But that is also true about Fibonacci: 1, 1, 2 . . . 3rd term divided by the second is 2/1 = 2, not phi. They approach the actual golden ratio in the limit as the number of terms approaches infinity, because only then will the ratio between two (extremely large) integers begin to approach an irrational number.
But [phi^n/sqrt(5)] gives us the n-th fibonacci number.
Also, I'm not either camp, recurrence is the lord of them all.
You can get around the rounding another way. If you let PHI be (1+root5)/2 and phi be (1-root5)/2 ie. the two roots of x^2=x+1, then the nth Lucas number, Ln = PHI^n + phi^n.
Love you Matt xx
