Puzzle time - Pisano periods
-
Sort of a bonus round from the previous puzzle.
Recall that “Pisano Periods“ are the periods in which the cycle F mod n repeats for a given n, where F represents the Fibonacci sequence.
Why are all the periods even numbers above n=2?
And double bonus question, why is there an exception for n = 2?
