Given a positive integer n, the task is to print the nth non-Fibonacci number. The Fibonacci numbers are defined as: 

Fib(0) = 0
Fib(1) = 1
for n >1, Fib(n) = Fib(n-1) + Fib(n-2)

First few Fibonacci numbers are 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 141, ……..

Examples: 

Input : n = 2
Output : 6

Input : n = 5
Output : 10
Recommended Practice

Below is the implementation of the above idea.
 

C++




// C++ program to find n'th Fibonacci number
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Returns n'th Non-Fibonacci number
int nonFibonacci(int n)
{
    // curr is to keep track of current fibonacci
    // number, prev is previous, prevPrev is
    // previous of previous.
    int prevPrev = 1, prev = 2, curr = 3;
 
    // While count of non-fibonacci numbers
    // doesn't become negative or zero
    while (n > 0) {
        // Simple Fibonacci number logic
        prevPrev = prev;
        prev = curr;
        curr = prevPrev + prev;
 
        // (curr - prev - 1) is count of
        // non-Fibonacci numbers between curr
        // and prev.
        n = n - (curr - prev - 1);
    }
 
    // n might be negative now. Make sure it
    // becomes positive by removing last added
    // gap.
    n = n + (curr - prev - 1);
 
    // n must be now positive and less than or equal
    // to gap between current and previous, i.e.,
    // (curr - prev - 1);
 
    // Now add the positive n to previous Fibonacci
    // number to find the n'th non-fibonacci.
    return prev + n;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    cout << nonFibonacci(5);
    return 0;
}

  // number, prev is previous, prevPrev is

  int prevPrev=1, prev=2, curr=3;

    prevPrev = prev;
    prev = curr;
    curr = prevPrev + prev;
 
    // (curr - prev - 1) is count of

    // and prev.
    n = n - (curr - prev - 1);
  }

Now geeks you must be wondering what if we were supposed to print Non-Fibonacci Series in a range, then the code is as follows: 

C++




#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
int main()

    int i = 0, j = 1, k, m, no, b[10];
 
    // Range is 10
    no = 10;
    b[1] = 0;
    b[2] = 1;
 
    // Check if range is less equals to 1
    if (no <= 1) {
        cout << "You have enter a wrong range";
    }
 
    // check if range is greater than 1
    // and less equals to 5
    else if (no <= 5 && no > 1) {
        cout << "\nThere is not any Non-Fibonacci series "
                "that lies between 1 to "
             << no << " term of Fibonacci Series.";
    }
 
    // If range is greater than 5
    else {
 
        // Loop to calculate fibonacci series till
        // range
        for (m = 2; m < no; m++) {
            k = i + j;
            i = j;
            j = k;
 
            // Store fibonacci series into b[]
            // array
            b[m] = k;
        }
        i = 5;
        cout << "\nThe Non-Fibonacci series that lies "
                "between 1 to "
             << no << " term of Fibonacci Series is: \n";
 
        // Loop to calculate Non-Fibonacci
        // series
        for (int ans = 4; ans < b[no - 1]; ans++) {
            if (ans != b[i])
