Fibonacci Number
Problem
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
Solution
/**
* @param {number} n
* @return {number}
*/
var fib = function(n) {
let dp = Array(n >= 2 ? n + 1 : 2).fill(null);
dp[0] = 0;
dp[1] = 1;
for (let i = 2; i <= n; ++i) {
dp[i] = dp[i - 1] + dp[i - 2];
}
return dp[n];
};
We will implement a DP solution. Let dp[i]
be the value of F(i)
.
- For the base case, if
i = 0
ori = 1
, thendp[0] = 0
anddp[1] = 1
by definition. - For the recursive case,
dp[i] = dp[i - 1] + dp[i - 2]
by definition.
