Difference Between a Mathematician and a Programmer

Name: Anonymous 2018-10-02 23:34

Mathematician:
fib(n) = ((1/2+sqrt(5)/2)^n - (1/2-sqrt(5)/2)^n)/sqrt(5)

Programmer:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int n, t1 = 0, t2 = 1, nextTerm = 0;

cout << "Enter the number of terms: ";
cin >> n;

cout << "Fibonacci Series: ";

for (int i = 1; i <= n; ++i)
{
// Prints the first two terms.
if(i == 1)
{
cout << " " << t1;
continue;
}
if(i == 2)
{
cout << t2 << " ";
continue;
}
nextTerm = t1 + t2;
t1 = t2;
t2 = nextTerm;

cout << nextTerm << " ";
}
return 0;
}

There is no need to free pointers or join threads or any of that mental midget toilet scrubber stuff in math. It just works.
almost if programming (as opposed to pure computer science) was a subset of engineering and not pure abstract math. there is no need to account for gravity, materials and erosion in pure geometry, but it doesn't mean that bridge builders are retards.
