Review text

Summary: The fact that the Fibonacci numbers appear by adding up appropriate entries in slanting rows of Pascal's triangle is by now almost ubiquitous. The purpose of this article is to show how the authors eventually came to view the Fibonacci numbers as they relate to the Pascal triangle so that the results may be generalized.
