Fibonacci O(log n) solution


Fibonacci is defined as following.

The following eqution can be proved.

(Prove by induction)

  1. When
  1. Suppose it satisfy for , then for

To compute , we can just compute . This can be done in since

A Golang version code can be found in my GitHub. In my test, this solution is way more fast than the version.
