The task today is: You are given a positive integer $N. Write a script to find out all possible combination of Fibonacci Numbers required to get $N on addition. You are NOT allowed to repeat a number. Print 0 if none found.
Print the Nth Fibonacci number. Fibonacci numbers are defined by the recurring formula: fn = fn-1 + fn-2. In Perl, you can assign two values at a time (see Task 48, Swap two values). You can use that technique for calculating the next Fibonacci number from the previous two. To bootstrap the algorithm, the two first … Continue reading “📘 Computing Fibonacci numbers using Perl 6”
Welcome to Day 15 of the Perl 6 One-Liner Advent Calendar! Today, there will be two one-liners, and they both generate Fibonacci numbers. Yes, most likely, you never used such numbers in real code, and, again, most likely, you solved many educating problems with them. Nevertheless, today, let’s solve the Problem 25 of the Project … Continue reading “🎄 15/25. Playing with Fibonacci numbers in Perl 6”
Welcome to Day 8 of this year’s Perl 6 One-Liner Advent Calendar. It is about ¼ of the whole series, and don’t forget that you can type ¼ instead of 0.25 in Perl 6! Today, we are solving problem 2 from Project Euler. The task is to find the sum of all even Fibonacci numbers below four … Continue reading “🎄 8/25. Adding up even Fibonacci numbers in Perl 6”

Welcome to Day 17 of the Perl 6 One-Liner Advent Calendar! Today, we’ll have two one-liners, both generating some prime numbers. Part 1 First, let us solve Problem 7 of Project Euler, where you need to print the 10001st number (having the first being 2). Perl 6 is good at prime numbers, as it has … Continue reading “🎄 17/25.

In Perl 6, the star character * can be associated with one of the predefined classes, Whatever and WhateverCode. We’ll start with an object of the Whatever class. say *.WHAT; # (Whatever) The construction like 1 .. * creates a Range object, where its upper limit is not fixed to any particular number. say (1 … Continue reading “📘 Whatever (*) and WhateverCode in Perl 6”
