Answer box bug

Post by rophl »

My answer for problem 15 seems to be too long for the entry box, it cuts off about halfway through, I've tried both my browsers (ie and firefox) and both cut off in the same place.
My answer starts 167683.... , it might just be that I have a wrong, too-long answer =P
Can anyone help?

The answer should fit in the answer box (it's less than 16 digits).
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=677 might be relevant.

Never mind, I was wrong.
Was going about it in completely the wrong way =X, but it's all fixed now. Thanks anyway!

Hello,

in "Problem 25" I have worked out the 1000 digits big number, but now I don't know if my 1000 digits number is correct. So
how can I insert or how can I convert the first Fibonacci sequence number having 1000 digits into the 18 length box? :roll: :?: :?

Thank you in advance :mrgreen:

Just type in the index of that number. If FN is the first Fibonacci number containing 1000 digits, enter N 8-)

Thank you Daniel. So N is the right answer, FN no 8-)
