UPDATED: After realizing that very large Fibonacci numbers would not work with my formula, I went about it a bit differently. This time I created a while loop tied to the input being smaller than the last element in my fib array, creating a Fibonacci sequence where fib[-1] should == i if i is in fact fibonacci. This seemed like a more roundabout…
