Hints/Tips re: Proof Comment 2 of 2 |
(In reply to Proof by Daniel)

Two minor, albeit important adjustments:

1.  Your " let the 3 sides be a,b,c with a<b<c"   should be
"Let the 3 distinct numbers be a,b,c with a<b<c"
(sides in a triangle may be equal).

2. "fibonnaci numbers" should be spelled with a capital F, i.e.  Fibonnaci-   he surely deserves it!
