I have been trying to come out with a solution regarding the problem of finding the last digit of the sum of large n Fibonacci series. I have been able to pass several test cases with large n. But I'm stuck at the following case where n = 832564823476. I know it can be solved using Pisano's period but I'm unable to come out with a efficient algo. Any help would be great. Thanks. My code that I have implemented is as follows-
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int calc_fib(int n) {
int fib[n+1];
fib[0]=0;
fib[1]=1;
int res = 1;
for(int i = 2; i<=n;i++){
fib[i] = (fib[i-1]%10 + fib[i-2]%10)%10;
res = res + fib[i];
}
return (res%10);
}
int main() {
int n = 0;
std::cin >> n;
std::cout << calc_fib(n) << '\n';
return 0;
}
SOLVED IT
Works on all range of inputs. It works on the following algorithm. The idea is to notice that the last digits of fibonacci numbers also occur in sequences of length 60 (from the previous problem: since pisano peiod of 10 is 60). Irrespective of how large n is, its last digit is going to have appeared somewhere within the sequence. Two Things apart from edge case of 10 as last digit.
Code as follows;
If you only need to output the last digit as you said, I think you can just make use of the Pisano Period you mentioned, as for modular 10, the cycle length is only 60 and you can just pre-make an array of that 60 digits.
If you want to compute by yourself, I think you can use Matrix Exponentiation which gives you
O(lg N)
complexity, when calculating the matrix exponents, keep storing the temporary result modular 10. See the Matrices section for your reference.Actually it's even easier than Niall answer

For your function removing the array.
