Fibonnaci sequence...

[not_l33t]

How do I assimilate that sequence so I can out put its sequence.

I tried this one, but it doesn't work. It is supposed to add the 2 preceeding numbers but I am gettting out of ideas.

code:

var b :int put "Enter the number you want to go up to" get b for i : 1 .. b     put (i-1)+(i-2) end for

recursion.

code:

fcn Fib (a : int, b : int) : int     put b     delay (1000)     result Fib (b, a + b) end Fib put 1 put Fib (1, 1)

Thank you very much. Amazing stuff. Can you explain the first line.

eh... fcn is the short form for function. Similary, proc is short for procedure (which is a function that doesn't return a value... silly HoltSoft )

lol, i have yet to find a short form for processes. maybe prcs ?

Seriously, I don't get it. I have never used the function command. Neither do I get the logic of it. I am really sorry but can you explain it to me? Please?

function a block of code that returns a value. Same as functions covered in math.

y = 2x

in turing that would be

code:

function y(x:int):int return 2*x end y put y(2)

All hail the Turing Lord.
