People with errors, either move the function fibonacci above the main-function, or declare a prototype above and keep the definition below. When the compiler comes to fibonacci(n); it has not yet seen the declaration of that function.

A prototype would be written as
int fibonacci(int n);

Is a recursive implementation of Fibonacci sequence in C possible.

Not really sure why, it works fine for me. There isn’t much that can go wrong. Maybe if you could past the errors, we could figure it out.

Un-related to above, but wanted to make contact. I’ve downloaded your add on for FF for NoDoFollow; but I can’t figure out how to use it. The example shows content is highlighted red. Somewhere, I believe on a blog or two I read using the toolbar was suppose to make things turn blue or red, one meant do follow, the other no follow. But, mine does not turn red or blue, it turns purple and I don’t know if purple is good or bad…good being do follow, bad being no follow.

I’ve asked this question of multiple people, but so far haven’t been able to get an answer. Am hoping you can set me straight, perhaps hop over to my blog and and let me know.

Thanks, looking forward to using the tool. I removed the no follow from all 3 of my blogspot blogs, I have the badge showing others I am a do follow; but now would like to go to the next step and no when I’m visiting a blog whether they are a do follow or a no follow.

Thanks
Sandy

I should also add, adding to my confusion somewhere I think I read it was suppose to turn purple or white, but those colors weren’t identified as to which one meant what. Using the tool here now on your blog, your name shows up red and the date of your comment shows up purple. Adrian’s responses also show up red, while Mike’s remain colorless.

How about scheme?? LISP?
Way shorter than any of those:

(define (fib n)
(if (< n 2)
n
(+ (fib (- n 1)) (fib (- n 2)))))

@Mike – Sorry I never responded to you. I’m sure there is, just add another prompt to get another variable from stdin, and then modify the fibonacci function to accept n and that. biggest problem is you don’t know what b is, so if you’re using this example, you’ll still have to calculate everything up to that point.

I can’t seem to duplicate that problem, works fine for me on both linux and OS X with gcc. Did you copy and paste the code or type it all out, or download the file using the link? I’d try downloading the file first.

Also, if you’re using another compiler, there may be something different about it that my code doesn’t take into account.

Hey! Was just wondering, I borrowed the code and well I was just wondering if there maybe a way to set the fib seq to print out at a particular point in which the user declares the start point after prompted to.
