A Program Designed to Prove That the BBC Microbit Is Indeed Computing the Fibonacci Sequence

Fibonacci-Evidence.py

'''
This program is designed to porve that
the BBC Microbit is actually calculating the
Fibonacci Sequence. The code for computing
Fibonacci Sequence up to a specific number
of numbers inthe sequence can be found using
the following link -

According to my BBC Microbit, the maximum number
of numbers it can calculate before crashing is 
9000, which is a new world record, unofficially.
Any higher than that and the BBC Microbit raises
a Memory Error because it has ran out of memory
to calculate further.

	for i in range(x-2):

		b = a + b
		a = c
	return b

numbers_to_generate = 500
numbersGenerated = fibonacci(numbers_to_generate)

end_time = time.time()
time = end_time - start_time
print(numbersGenerated)
