The Fibonacci Series
Madent Posted Jan 22, 2003
I did some back tracking and some double checking
F(158)=468,340,976,726,457,153,752,543,329,995,929 (Supplied by Marjin)
F(159)=757,791,618,667,731,139,247,631,372,100,066 (Supplied by GTB)
Then somebody (Gif) got careless and it should have gone
F(160)= 1,226,132,595,394,188,293,000,174,702,095,995
F(161)= 1,983,924,214,061,919,432,247,806,074,196,061
F(162)= 3,210,056,809,456,107,725,247,980,776,292,056
F(163)= 5,193,981,023,518,027,157,495,786,850,488,117
F(164)= 8,404,037,832,974,134,882,743,767,626,780,173
F(165)=13,598,018,856,492,162,040,239,554,477,268,290
But it got straightened out by GTB at post 202
F(166)=22,002,056,689,466,296,922,983,322,104,048,463
F(167)=35,600,075,545,958,458,963,222,876,581,316,753
Only to be later cocked up by the same
F(176)=2,706,074,082,469,569,338,358,691,163,510,069,157
Which of course throws everything from this afternoon completely off track.
F(177)= 4,378,519,841,510,949,178,490,918,731,459,856,482
F(178)= 7,084,593,923,980,518,516,849,609,894,969,925,639
F(179)=11,463,113,765,491,467,695,340,528,626,429,782,121
F(180)=18,547,707,689,471,986,212,190,138,521,399,707,760
F(181)=48,558,529,144,435,440,119,720,805,669,229,197,641
But this hopefully straightens it all out again.

F(182)=67,106,236,833,907,426,331,910,944,190,628,905,401
based on Madent's (presumably correct) list...

Alas Madent skipped
F(181) = 30,010,821,454,963,453,907,530,667,147,829,489,881
and called
F(182) = 48,558,529,144,435,440,119,720,805,669,229,197,641
F(181) 
Next one:
F(183) = 78,569,350,599,398,894,027,251,472,817,058,687,522

GTBacchus Posted Jan 23, 2003
Ok!
Assuming nobody's going to come along and correct that one,
F(183) = 78,569,350,599,398,894,027,251,472,817,058,687,522
Will we ever make it to the duodecillions?!

F(184)=127,127,879,743,834,334,146,972,278,485,287,885,163
Hmmm, 127,127. Is anyone else using Notepad for this or is it just me?

Well spotted Marjin, but I'm not surprised I missed a line.

"Cut and paste the last two numbers into the next post and add them up there"
That's what I do, but a couple more digits, and we'll be wider than the text box.

You beat me to it again but slipped up (I think) in the second group of three
F(187)=538,522,340,430,300,790,495,419,781,092,981,030,533

I use notepad, thanks Acaeris. I was using pen and paper, but that got really confusing.

Madent is. There wasn't a carry digit coming out of the nonillions for F(187).

Y'know, before this thread, I never had occasion to talk about "nonillions"...

F(149) = 1,409,869,790,947,669,143,312,035,591,975,596,518,914
I hope I didn't mess it up this time.

Don't you mean F(189)?
