Title:
The life and numbers of Fibonacci | plus.maths.org
Description:
Have you ever wondered where we got our decimal numbering system from? The Roman Empire left Europe with the Roman numeral system which we still see, amongst other places, in the copyright notices after TV programmes (1997 is MCMXCVII).
The Roman numerals were not displaced until the 13th Century AD when Fibonacci published his Liber abaci which means "The Book of Calculations"
