There are other solutions of O(logn). The recursive solution can be reduced to a linear time solution using a techniqueue called memoization. That is called dynamic programming. There are two O(logn) solutions one using Matrix Exponentiation and other using the non standard formulas mentioned in wikipedia which expresses fib(n) in terms of fib(n/2 +c) .

I think, I have made my best and given most of the answers about testing problems, Link lists and all.I am satisfied with the same. My 3rd interview finish at 1 o'clock .It was followed by Product Team Manager who also took my telephonic interview and he jsut asked my day, my back ground and what do you looking forward to work in Microsoft, I think,I am best in that too and he is satisfied. Any one any idea or past experience if your interviews goes all well with people impressed and it finishes off by 1:30 PM. what does that mean ? Is it always that Microsoft has 5-6 rounds of interview till evening or that sometimes, they closes the same early as in my case. Any inputs are most welcome. I am optimistic though :)) Hi , I just came from a Microsoft face to face Interview in Redmond.In the morning Recruiter had told me that I would be meetng with 3 interviewers. 2 for 1 hour each and 3rd one more longer with lunch interview in between .
