C program for Fibonacci series

C program to print fibonacci series using iteration 

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
    int n, i, fib0 = 0, fib1 = 1, fib;
 printf("Enter the number of terms: ");
    scanf("%d", &n);
  printf("Fibonacci Series: ");
  for (i = 1; i <= n; i++) {
        printf("%d ", fib0);
        fib = fib0 + fib1;
        fib0 = fib1;
        fib1 = fib;
    }

    return 0;
}

Explanation:

The program first prompts the user to enter the number of terms in the Fibonacci series.
* It initializes variables fib0 and fib1 to the first two terms of the series.
* The for loop is used to iterate from 1 to n, and in each iteration, it prints the value of fib0, which is the current term of the series.
* The fib variable is used to calculate the next term of the series by adding fib0 and fib1.
* Then fib0 is updated to the value of fib1, and fib1 is updated to the value of fib, which is the next term of the series.
* After the loop finishes, the program returns 0, indicating successful execution.
Sample Output:

Sample output:
Enter the number of terms: 10
Fibonacci Series: 0 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34
         



C program to print fibonacci series with recursion 

#include <stdio.h>
int fibonacci(int n);
int main() {
    int n, i;
    printf("Enter the number of terms: ");
    scanf("%d", &n);
  printf("Fibonacci series:\n");
    for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        printf("%d ", fibonacci(i));
    }
return 0;
}
int fibonacci(int n) {
    if (n <= 1) {
        return n;
    }
 return fibonacci(n - 1) + fibonacci(n - 2);
}

Explanation :

* The program starts by including the standard input/output header file stdio.h, which is needed for input/output operations.
* The program defines a recursive function fibonacci(), which takes an integer argument n and returns an integer value. 
* This function is responsible for calculating the n-th term in the Fibonacci sequence.
* The main function starts by declaring some variables: n to store the number of terms in the sequence, and i for use in the loop that will print the sequence.
* The program prompts the user to enter the number of terms they want to print in the Fibonacci sequence, and reads the user's input using the scanf() function.
* The program then prints a message to let the user know that the Fibonacci series is about to be printed.
* The program enters a for loop that will print each term of the sequence up to the number of terms specified by the user. In each iteration of the loop, the program calls the fibonacci() function with the loop counter i as an argument, and prints the result.
* The fibonacci() function is defined recursively: if the argument n is less than or equal to 1 (i.e., if n is 0 or 1), the function simply returns n. Otherwise, the function recursively calls itself with arguments n-1 and n-2, adds the results, and returns the sum.
* Finally, the program returns 0 to indicate successful completion of the main function.
* That's it! When the program is run, it prompts the user to enter the number of terms they want to see in the Fibonacci sequence, calculates the sequence using the fibonacci() function defined recursively, and prints the results.

Sample Output:
Enter the number of terms: 10
Fibonacci series:
0 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 

The program takes input from the user for the number of terms in the Fibonacci series, and then prints the series using a loop and the fibonacci() function that is defined recursively.

Introduction to C Programs

INTRODUCTION The programming language ‘C’ was developed by Dennis Ritchie in the early 1970s at Bell Laboratories. Although C was first developed for writing system software, today it has become such a famous language that a various of software programs are written using this language. The main advantage of using C for programming is that it can be easily used on different types of computers. Many other programming languages such as C++ and Java are also based on C which means that you will be able to learn them easily in the future. Today, C is mostly used with the UNIX operating system. Structure of a C program A C program contains one or more functions, where a function is defined as a group of statements that perform a well-defined task.The program defines the structure of a C program. The statements in a function are written in a logical series to perform a particular task. The most important function is the main() function and is a part of every C program. Rather, the execution o...

Performance

Performance ( Optional ) * The I/O system is a main factor in overall system performance, and can place heavy loads on other main components of the system ( interrupt handling, process switching, bus contention, memory access and CPU load for device drivers just to name a few. ) * Interrupt handling can be relatively costly ( slow ), which causes programmed I/O to be faster than interrupt driven I/O when the time spent busy waiting is not excessive. * Network traffic can also loads a heavy load on the system. Consider for example the sequence of events that occur when a single character is typed in a telnet session, as shown in figure( And the fact that a similar group of events must happen in reverse to echo back the character that was typed. ) Sun uses in-kernel threads for the telnet daemon, improving the supportable number of simultaneous telnet sessions from the hundreds to the thousands.   fig: Intercomputer communications. * Rather systems use front-end processor...

Mathematics

MATHEMATICS           Mathematics is the science that deals with shapes, quantities and arrangements. Archmedes is known as the father of Mathematics (287BC-212BC). Mathematics seek and use patterns to formulates new conjuctures.They resove truth or false by using mathematical proof. Mathematics developed by counting, calculation, Measurements, Shapes and motion of physical objects.  Definition Mathematics has no general accepted definition. Until 18th century Aristotle defined mathematics as "the science of quantity". Many mathematicans take no interest in definition they simply say "Mathematics is what Mathematican do". Three leading definition of mathematics today are logicist, intutionist, and formalist. Logicist - In terms of Benjamin peirce, the definition of mathematics in terms of logic are "the science that draws necessary conclusion" and also said that " All mathematics is symbolic logic" by Mathematician Rusell. Intutionist - L.E.J.Bro...
