Primefree sequences use the Fibonacci recursion with other starting points to generate sequences in which all numbers are composite. Letting a number be a linear function (other than the sum) of the 2 preceding numbers.
The term Fibonacci sequence is also applied more generally to any function from the integers to a field for which (+) = + (+).These functions are precisely those of the form () = () + (), so the Fibonacci sequences form a vector space with the functions () and () as a basis.
For generalized Fibonacci sequences (satisfying the same recurrence relation, but with other initial values, e.g. the Lucas numbers) the number of occurrences of 0 per cycle is 0, 1, 2, or 4. The ratio of the Pisano period of n and the number of zeros modulo n in the cycle gives the rank of apparition or Fibonacci entry point of n.
In mathematics, a recurrence relation is an equation according to which the th term of a sequence of numbers is equal to some combination of the previous terms. Often, only previous terms of the sequence appear in the equation, for a parameter that is independent of ; this number is called the order of the relation.
In numerical analysis, fixed-point iteration is a method of computing fixed points of a function.. More specifically, given a function defined on the real numbers with real values and given a point in the domain of , the fixed-point iteration is + = (), =,,, … which gives rise to the sequence,,, … of iterated function applications , (), (()), … which is hoped to converge to a point .
In mathematics, the Fibonacci polynomials are a polynomial sequence which can be considered as a generalization of the Fibonacci numbers. The polynomials generated in a similar way from the Lucas numbers are called Lucas polynomials .
The Fibonacci sequence is constant-recursive: each element of the sequence is the sum of the previous two. Hasse diagram of some subclasses of constant-recursive sequences, ordered by inclusion In mathematics , an infinite sequence of numbers s 0 , s 1 , s 2 , s 3 , … {\displaystyle s_{0},s_{1},s_{2},s_{3},\ldots } is called constant ...
Using dynamic programming in the calculation of the nth member of the Fibonacci sequence improves its performance greatly. Here is a naïve implementation, based directly on the mathematical definition: function fib(n) if n <= 1 return n return fib(n − 1) + fib(n − 2)
