Abstract: Abstract “If a tree puts forth a new branch after one year, and always rests for a year, producing another new branch only in the year following, and if the same law applies to each branch, then, in the first year we should have only the principal shoot, in the second - two branches, in the third - three, then 5, 8, 13”.
