Detailed Description

Implementation of the N-bonacci series.

In general, in N-bonacci sequence, we generate sum of preceding N numbers from the next term.

For example, a 3-bonacci sequence is the following: 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 4, 7, 13, 24, 44, 81 In this code we take N and M as input where M is the number of terms to be printed of the N-bonacci series

N_bonacci()

std::vector< uint64_t > math::n_bonacci::N_bonacci	(	const uint64_t &	n,
		const uint64_t &	m )

Finds the N-Bonacci series for the n parameter value and m parameter terms.

Parameters

n	is in the N-Bonacci series
m	is the number of terms in the N-Bonacci sequence

Returns

the n-bonacci sequence as vector array

we initialise the (n-1)th term as 1 which is the sum of preceding N zeros

similarily the sum of preceding N zeros and the (N+1)th 1 is also 1
