C program to print Fibonacci series

C program to print Fibonacci series

Fibonacci series is a series of number in which each number is the sum of preceding two numbers.

for example:

0 1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21  …

The next number is found by adding up the two numbers before it as :

• The 2 is found by adding the two numbers before it (1+1)
• The 3 is found by adding the two numbers before it (1+2),
• And the 5 is (2+3),
• and so on!

• The sequence F_n of Fibonacci numbers is defined by the
      where    or  

Let us see the C program to print Fibonacci series:

/*C program to print fibonacci series till N terms.*/
 
#include <stdio.h>
 
//create a function to print Fibonacci series
void getFibonacci(int a,int b, int n)
{   
    int sum;
    if(n>0)
    {
        sum=a+b;
        printf("%d ",sum);
        a=b;
        b=sum;
        getFibonacci(a,b,n-1);
    }
}
int main()
{
    int a,b,sum,n;
    int i;
     
    a=0;        //first term
    b=1;        //second term
     
    printf("Enter total number of terms: ");
    scanf("%d",&n);
     
    printf("Fibonacci series is : ");
    //print a and b as first and second terms of series
    printf("%d\t%d\t",a,b);
    //call function with (n-2) terms
    getFibonacci(a,b,n-2);
    printf("\n");   
    return 0;
}

Output:

Enter total number of terms: 5
Fibonacci series is : 0 1 1 2 3
