Fibonacci Fast

/**
 * @file
 * @brief Faster computation of Fibonacci series
 *
 * An efficient way to calculate nth fibonacci number faster and simpler than
 * \f$O(n\log n)\f$ method of matrix exponentiation This works by using both
 * recursion and dynamic programming. as 93rd fibonacci exceeds 19 digits, which
 * cannot be stored in a single long long variable, we can only use it till 92nd
 * fibonacci we can use it for 10000th fibonacci etc, if we implement
 * bigintegers. This algorithm works with the fact that nth fibonacci can easily
 * found if we have already found n/2th or (n+1)/2th fibonacci It is a property
 * of fibonacci similar to matrix exponentiation.
