How to check if a given number is Fibonacci number?
Given a number ‘n’, how to check if n is a Fibonacci number. First few Fibonacci numbers are 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, ..
Examples :
Input : 8 Output : Yes Input : 34 Output : Yes Input : 41 Output : No
A simple way is to generate Fibonacci numbers until the generated number is greater than or equal to ‘n’. Following is an interesting property about Fibonacci numbers that can also be used to check if a given number is Fibonacci or not.
A number is Fibonacci if and only if one or both of (5*n2 + 4) or (5*n2 – 4) is a perfect square (Source: Wiki). Following is a simple program based on this concept.
C++
// C++ program to check if x is a perfect square#include <iostream>#include <math.h>using namespace std;// A utility function that returns true if x is perfect squarebool isPerfectSquare(int x){ int s = sqrt(x); return (s*s == x);}// Returns true if n is a Fibonacci Number, else falsebool isFibonacci(int n){ // n is Fibonacci if one of 5*n*n + 4 or 5*n*n - 4 or both // is a perfect square return isPerfectSquare(5*n*n + 4) || isPerfectSquare(5*n*n - 4);}// A utility function to test above functionsint main(){ for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) isFibonacci(i)? cout << i << " is a Fibonacci Number \n": cout << i << " is a not Fibonacci Number \n" ; return 0;} |
Java
// Java program to check if x is a perfect squareclass GFG{ // A utility method that returns true if x is perfect square static boolean isPerfectSquare(int x) { int s = (int) Math.sqrt(x); return (s*s == x); } // Returns true if n is a Fibonacci Number, else false static boolean isFibonacci(int n) { // n is Fibonacci if one of 5*n*n + 4 or 5*n*n - 4 or both // is a perfect square return isPerfectSquare(5*n*n + 4) || isPerfectSquare(5*n*n - 4); } // Driver method public static void main(String[] args) { for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) System.out.println(isFibonacci(i) ? i + " is a Fibonacci Number" : i + " is a not Fibonacci Number"); }}//This code is contributed by Nikita Tiwari |

Output:
1 is a Fibonacci Number 2 is a Fibonacci Number 3 is a Fibonacci Number 4 is a not Fibonacci Number 5 is a Fibonacci Number 6 is a not Fibonacci Number 7 is a not Fibonacci Number 8 is a Fibonacci Number 9 is a not Fibonacci Number 10 is a not Fibonacci Number
Time Complexity: O(n)
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
