Building off of yesterday's problem, create a program to calculate the nth number in the Fibonacci Sequence.
There is a way to calculate it in faster than linear runtime but it can be quite complex. A linear solution is quite fine for today.

Python.
limit=int(raw_input()) num1=0 num2=1 for i in range(limit): num=num1+num2 num2=num1 num1=num print num

Here's a memoized version in Haskell:
Running it for the 10000th number gives:
