I need a For Next loop that will print the first 10 Fibonacci numbers :(1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55)

this would entail a writing a function calling itself (recursive)

sub main()
dim ctr,i,j,k as integer

i = 0
j = 1
k = 1

fibGen(i,j,k)

End

sub fibGen(i,j,k as integer)

do
k = i + j
i = j
j = k
ctr = ctr + 1
msgbox(k)
loop while (ctr < 10)

end


hope this would be of help... :)

ops....

missing line...

...
ctr = ctr + 1
msgbox(k)
/* this is the missing line */
fibGen(i,j,k)
loop while (ctr < 10)

I think this should help you
if for some reason it doesn't work at least the F function has the correct algorithm to get what you need.

public sub main()
dim iC,iD as integer
ic=inputbox("Enter the term number you want to get the value of...")
iD=F(iC)
msgbox iD
end sub
private function F(n as integer) as integer
if n=1 or n=2 then
F=1
else
F=F(n-1) + F(n-2)
end if
end function

Thanks a bunch! It worked without the fibGen(i,j,k)
