Im curious how does the Fibonacci sequence get from zero to one. Without that how could the rest be possible. Any ideas?

0 + 1 is the next number, 1

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144

Edit: Why would anyone downvote this? Jesus. I literally used Wikipedia. You people are nightmares.

Thankyou im working on using the Fibonacci sequence as part of crytograph for was supposed to be fun lol i thought like how 3 is 1+2 meant it had to be two previous numbers added which 1+1 =2 cool but what added to 0 for 0+1? (Sorry Im probably overthinking the goose shit out of this)

1 is added to 0 to get 1.

I know the explanation also sounds stupid, but the Fibonacci sequence is defined as

0, 1, 1, 2, 3

So if you want something between 0 and 1, that may not be the Fibonacci sequence.
