Even Fibonacci numbers
Lesson 5 of 20 in Coddy's Mathematical Riddles course.
Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding the previous two terms. By starting with 1 and 2, the first 10 terms will be:
1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, ...
By considering the terms in the Fibonacci sequence whose values do not exceed N, find the sum of the even-valued terms.
Challenge
EasyWrite python code calcEvenFibonacciNums that get a natural number, <i>N</i>, and return the sum of the even terms of the Fibonacci sequence, starting with 1 and 2, whose values do not exceed <i>N</i>.
For example: calcEvenFibonacciNums(100) = 2+8+34 = 44.
Try it yourself
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
#include "solution.h"
int main() {
int n;
if (scanf("%d", &n) != 1) n = 0;
int r = calcEvenFibonacciNums(n);
printf("%d\n", r);
return 0;
}
