Modern number system, (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 ),is developed from Hindu-Arabic number system.
I have got a forward mail that depicts the evolution of modern number system from Tamil number system.
Thought this may not be true, it is definitely something interesting. Worth to check Logic behind Arabic numbers.
Back in college, once my Mathematics professor asked us to check random flowers, trees and leaves to find Fibonacci number. Many of us checked only the branches in trees to confirm the Fibonacci number. And haven’t shown much interest on explore more.
Recently, I came across an interesting video about Fibonacci numbers in nature.
This that triggered me to check Fibonacci in nature. And a quick Google gave more results.
Now checking ever single flower, fruit, leaves for Fibonacci 
Learning & Exploring mathematics in real life is always fun!

Three plus six, that son of a bitch is nine…..’
His mother heard what he was saying and gasped, ‘What are you doing?’
The little boy answered, ‘I’m doing my math homework, Mum.’
‘And this is how your teacher taught you to do it?’ the mother asked
‘Yes,’ he answered.
Infuriated, the mother asked the teacher the next day, ‘What are you teaching my son in math?’
The teacher replied, ‘Right now, we are learning addition.’
The mother asked, ‘And are you teaching them to say two plus two, that son of a bitch is four?’
After the teacher stopped laughing, she answered, ‘What I taught them was,
two plus two, THE SUM OF WHICH, is four.’
One day the first grade teacher was reading the story of ‘Chicken Little’ to her class.
She came to the part of the story where Chicken Little tried to warn the farmer. She read, ‘… and so Chicken Little went up to the farmer and said, ‘The sky is falling, the sky is falling!’
The teacher paused then asked the class, ‘And what do you think that farmer said?’
One little girl raised her hand and said, ‘I think he said: ’Holy shit! A talking chicken!”
The teacher was unable to teach for the next 10 minutes.
