print each value of the fibonacci sequence in python code example

Example 1: fibonacci sequence python

# WARNING: this program assumes the
# fibonacci sequence starts at 1
def fib(num):
	"""return the number at index `num` in the fibonacci sequence"""
    if num <= 2:
        return 1
    return fib(num - 1) + fib(num - 2)

# method 2: use `for` loop
def fib2(num):
	a, b = 1, 1
	for _ in range(num - 1):
		a, b = b, a + b
	return a


print(fib(6))  # 8
print(fib2(6))  # same result, but much faster

Example 2: python fibonacci sequence generator

number1 = 0
print('1:', number1)
number2 = 1
for count in range(2, 101):
  print(count, ':', number1 + number2)
  number1 += number2
  number2 = number1 - number2
