Description

Just a project I made when I was bored. The "Fibonacci" comes from a set of numbers called Fibonacci numbers: 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34...... (0+1=1,1+1=2,1+2=3,2+3=5 and so on) If you add the length of a line from a point on the outer edge of the spiral to 0,0 to the length of another line that goes in the same direction from 0,0 to the nearest edge of the spiral, that sum will equal the length of the rest of the same line that goes from the last point I dictated to the very outer edge, still going in the same direction. This measurement will work the same way as an increase in the Fibonacci set of numbers. (Please tell me if that made sense) I still don't know why there are some discontinuities in the shape of the spiral or why it stops prematurely online.
