STx seems to think the Golden Spiral is another name for the Fibonacci Spiral, I quote his "AKA".
I am talking about this:
Nope, you aren't paying enough attention to what I'm saying. The so-called golden spiral, aka Fibonacci spiral, is NOT a logarithmic curve.
It's not, it's a special case logarithmic spiral, the Fibonacci spiral is discrete (not calculus material) but the e in the equation for the Golden Spiral shows itself to be continuous thus subject to differential curve analysis ie 1st derivative tangents blah, blah, blah. It, the Golden Spiral, IS what he drew with the second bit of code using the PHI variable, I think ;-))
That was the meaning behind his little sketch here:
Your degree of smart-assness only makes things worse. I'll take your answer as a NO.
Anyway, in light of curvature, you can see these are way different beasts:

The first derivative of e^x IS e^x what a beauty!
