The Fibonacci sequence is defined by the recurrence relation:
Fn = Fn−1 + Fn−2 , where F1 = 1 and F2 = 1.
Hence the first 12 terms will be:
F1 = 1
F2 = 1
F3 = 2
F4 = 3
F5 = 5
F6 = 8
F7 = 13
F8 = 21
F9 = 34
F10 = 55
F11 = 89
F12 = 144The 12th term, F12 , is the first term to contain three digits.
What is the first term in the Fibonacci sequence to contain 1000 digits?
BigInteger number1 = BigInteger.ZERO; BigInteger number2 = BigInteger.ONE; BigInteger temp = BigInteger.ZERO; int count = 1; while (number2.toString().length()<1000) { temp = number1.add(number2); number1 = number2; number2 = temp; count++; } System.out.println(count);
