Fibonacci Number


The Fibonacci numbers, commonly denoted F(n) form a sequence, called the Fibonacci sequence, such that each number is the sum of the two preceding ones, starting from 0 and 1. That is,

F(0) = 0, F(1) = 1
F(n) = F(n - 1) + F(n - 2), for n > 1.

Given n, calculate F(n).

 

Example 1:

Input: n = 2
Output: 1
Explanation: F(2) = F(1) + F(0) = 1 + 0 = 1.

Example 2:

Input: n = 3
Output: 2
Explanation: F(3) = F(2) + F(1) = 1 + 1 = 2.

Example 3:

Input: n = 4
Output: 3
Explanation: F(4) = F(3) + F(2) = 2 + 1 = 3.

 

Constraints:

  • 0 <= n <= 30

 class Solution:
    def __init__(self):
        self.visited = {}

    def fib(self, n, visited=None):
        if n in self.visited:
            return self.visited[n] 

        if n <= 0:
            return 0
        if n == 1:
            return 1

        self.visited[n] =  self.fib(n-1, self.visited)+self.fib(n-2, self.visited)
        return self.visited[n]

From python 3.7 dict guarantees that order will be kept as they inserted, and popitem will use LIFO order but we need FIFO type system. so we need OrderedDict which have popIten(last = T/F) for this req. One thing, next(iter(dict)) will return the first key of the dict
