    Hello friends. I am doing survey on search algorithm and i want to know about fibonacci search algorithm .If you know about fibonacci algorithm plz reply me.

    Thanks in advance

    Algorithm implementation

    Code:
    F0 = 0, F1 = 1
    Fn = Fn-1+Fn-2 for n>=2.
    [b]function[/b] fibonacci_search(item: integer; arr: sort_array)[b]return[/b] index
    [b]is[/b]
      l : index := arr'first;[i]-- first element of array[/i]
      u : index := arr'last;[i]-- last element of array[/i]
      m : index := (u+l)/2;
      x,a,b : integer;
    [b]begin[/b]
      a := (Fn-3);
      b := (Fn-2)-(Fn-3); 
    [b]  discrete[/b] (f2,f1) := (Fn-2,Fn-3)
    	 [b]new[/b] (f2,f1) := (f2-f1,2*f1-f2) | (a,b)
    [b]  with[/b] i := u-l+1
    	 [b]new[/b] i=i/2[b]loop[/b]
    [b]  loop[/b]
    	[b]if[/b] item < arr(m)[b]then[/b]
    	  m := m-f1;[i]-- compute new position of compared element[/i] 
    	  f2 := f2-f1;
    	  f1 := f1-f2;
    	[b]elsif[/b] item > arr(m)[b]then[/b]
    	  m := m+f1;[i]-- compute new position of compared element[/i]
    	  x := f1;
    	  f1 := f2-f1;
    	  f2 := x;
    	  a := f2; b := f1;
       [b]else[/b]
    	  [b]return[/b] m;[i]-- return index of found item[/i]
       [b]end[/b] [b]if[/b];
    	  i := i/2;
    [b]  end[/b] [b]loop[/b];
    [b]end[/b] fibonacci_search;

    hi, you are careful but I think it's only small algorithm.
    I think that:
    Code:
    f[0] = f[1] = 1;
    for (i = 2 ; i< n ; i++)
      f[ i ] = f[i -1] + f[i-2 ];
    scanf( f[n]);
    
    what do you think ?
