# Golden Ratio & Fibonacci Explorer implementation

A source-bound implementation contract for Golden Ratio & Fibonacci Explorer; deployment and executable qualification remain separate.

Status: **VERIFIED_CLEAN**Lifecycle: **implementation-contract**

## Binding contract

This record describes what an executable surface must bind and validate. It does not claim that a public calculator, package, or production route is deployed.

**Record owner**: Guth Instruments

**Lifecycle**: verified-clean

**Evidence ID**: t6-143

**Effect**: Computation or source lookup only

## Input and validation requirements

- Division by zero or undefined output occurs for convergence ratios whose denominator is F0=0; the UI must define behavior for n<2.

- Non-integer, negative, NaN, infinite, or excessively large n values need validation because Fibonacci indexing and Binet's intended use are for nonnegative integers.

- Direct floating-point Binet evaluation can lose accuracy for large n through cancellation or overflow; exact integer recurrence or a numerically stable method is preferable.

- The initial values and indexing convention must be exposed in the implementation or fixed in the honest label.

- The spiral can be plotted with inconsistent geometry unless the formula, angular units, starting radius, center, orientation, and domain are specified.

- A purely floating-point implementation may display exact Fibonacci integers incorrectly once values exceed the safe integer range of JavaScript Number; BigInt or an explicit upper bound is needed.

- The current input specification only says “n terms” although the outputs include a ratio and a spiral graphic, whose required parameters are not specified.

## Required corrections

No binding erratum is attached to this unique-name record. Implementers must still preserve the declared units, domain, and failure behavior.

## Inspectable interface fixture

The sample below is evidence for interface and validation tests, not a production implementation.
