Sažetak

The first few values of the Padovan sequence are defined geometrically in the introductory part of this paper. Next, by using a geometrical algorithm as a motivation, the Padovan sequence is defined by means of its recurrence relation and initial values. It is also shown how one could get an explicite formula for $P_{n}$ by using the plastic number. This is followed by the definition of morphic numbers and the proof that the plastic number
is a morphic number. Finally, some properties of the Padovan sequence are proven and some combinatorial interpretations are given.
