Fast version of fibonacci depend on fast computation of matrix
power (of a two by two matrix).  One way to have fast matrix power
is to diagonalize and use floating point (which is essentially
what is done by Binet's Formula), but as you noted this needs extra
precision.  Tim's version looks like somewhat obscure variant
of fast matrix powering.  This has advantage of doing all computations
on integers.  Of course, to make sense this must use increased
precision, preferably arbitrary precision arithmetic.

I started not from a matrix power approach but from a simple
recurrence relationship:  if we know fib(k-1) and fib(k), we can
compute fib(2k-1) and fib(2k) (and so also fib(2k+1)) using just
multiplication and addition.  After that it's just a matter of
deciding which track to go down.

Right!  Integers are cool.

For python enthusiasts here is a python version:

  def fibonacci( n ) :
    return  ff2( 1, 0, high_mask( 1, n ), n )

  def high_mask( m, n ) :
    return  m>>1 if m > n else high_mask( m<<1, n )

  def ff2( a, b, m, n ) :
    c = a+b
    if  m & n   :   return  ff2(          (a+c)*b, b*b+c*c,  m>>1, n )
    if  m       :   return  ff2( a*a+b*b, (a+c)*b,           m>>1, n )
    return  b


That said, fibonacci numbers grow fast enough so in most cases we
probably don't need the full generality of arbitrary precision.
Here is my latest 128-bit version:

typedef __uint128_t U128;

static     U128  qff( U128, U128, unsigned, unsigned );
static unsigned  mone( unsigned );

U128
zfibonacci( unsigned n ){
    return  n>10  ? qff( 0,1,mone(n),n )  : 0x410831483558b7 >>(60-6*n) &077;
}

U128
qff( U128 a, U128 b, unsigned m, unsigned n ){
  U128 c = a+b;
    return
        m & n   ?  qff(          (a+c)*b, b*b+c*c,  m>>1, n ) :
        m       ?  qff( a*a+b*b, (a+c)*b,           m>>1, n ) :
        /*****/    b;
}

unsigned
mone( unsigned n ){
    return  n |= n>>1,  n |= n>>2,  n |= n>>4,  (n ^ n>>1) >>1;
}

This version might run just a tad faster than my last version, by
shaving one iteration off cases where n is not 0.  Also the n > 10
test allows computing small values by what is sort of a table
lookup, encoding the first 11 values in a 64-bit integer quantity,
and extracting the needed value appropriately.

This gives fibonacci(186) is 332825110087067562321196029789634457848
(the largest value that fits in 128 bits).

Depends on the cost of a cache miss.  Because the computational
version is very fast, I tend to prefer it over a lookup table
with its higher variability.

Yes, that is the perennial problem with floating point.  Also
it's hard to scale up floating point, and fairly easy with
integers.  Here is code that works up to n = 186:

    typedef __uint128_t U128;

    static     U128      qff( U128, U128, unsigned, unsigned );
    static unsigned      lone( unsigned );

    U128
    qfibonacci( unsigned n ){
        return  qff( 1, 0, lone( n ), n );
    }

    U128
    qff( U128 a, U128 b, unsigned m, unsigned n ){
      U128 c = a+b;
        return
            m & n   ?  qff(          (a+c)*b, b*b+c*c,  m>>1, n ) :
            m       ?  qff( a*a+b*b, (a+c)*b,           m>>1, n ) :
            /*****/    b;
    }

    unsigned
    lone( unsigned n ){
        return  n |= n>>1,  n |= n>>2,  n |= n>>4,  n ^ n>>1;
    }

I don't mind a bit of expression-orientation.
But I don't like consistently expression-oriented syntax of Algol68 or
of Rust.
I don't know ML. Wikipedia says that it is functional. I'd guess that
for a functional language consistent expression orientation is natural.

That's fine; to each their own.  In Rust you can mostly ignore
it, though the resulting code would be somewhat unidiomatic.

If one is coming from an imperative, procedural programming
background, writing expression-oriented functional code can feel
extremely disorienting at first.  But it does tend to lead to
code with fewer side-effects and less shared state, composed
mostly of pure functions (that is, nothing is mutated).  I claim
such code is easier to test and modify, and with a little care,
one can often make inductive proofs about its actual behavior.

>I don't know ML. Wikipedia says that it is functional.

ML has a bit of an odd history; it started out as a "meta
language" for an automated theorem prover (itself written in
Lisp), and then grew into a full language in its own right.

An effort to standardize a variety of dialects resulted in
Standard ML (SML), which is notable for being defined by a
formal specification.  It saw some success in academia, but
little industry penetration.

An effort to merge object-oriented techniques and FP at INRIA
resulted in OCaml ("Objective Caml"; "caml" was another dialect
favored at INRIA).  Note that this presaged Scala, another
language that attempts a merger between FP and OO techniques, by
more than two decades.

OCaml seems to be the most popular descendent, currently, and is
used fairly widely in both academia and industry (I mean...as
such things go).  Jane Street, the quantitative training firm,
uses it heavily and promotes and supports it.

The other popular functional language, that largely supplanted
SML, is Haskell, which is popular in both academia and industry.
An informal way to think about the it is that SML is Edinburgh,
Haskell is Glasgow, and OCaml is French.  :-D

>I'd guess that
>for a functional language consistent expression orientation is natural.

It is.  In FP, essentially everything is an expression that
yields some value, though that value may be an empty tuple
(often called "unit"); that's the rough equivalent of `void` in
C.  Expression orientation is useful in that one can write things
like, `let foo = if cond then a else b`; in C, the "ternary
conditional operator" is an expression for this purpose (e.g.,
`foo = cond ? a : b;`), because `if` is a statement.

That doesn't match my experience. Maybe because I separate the
"expression-oriented" and "functional" aspects.

Functional is certainly peculiar if coming from an imperative
(procedural) language paradigm. Thus far I agree.

Indeed.

Well, depending on the language paradigm, you can modify code
also in other languages in other forms clearly and efficiently;
having for example OO in mind, or generic concepts.

Formal proofs are inherently difficult for non-trivial cases,
but non-functional paradigms usually add a lot "entropy" that
makes it really hard.

I've no experience in testing functional programs, though. All
I can say is that it appeared difficult to me to "instrument"
non-imperative code with debug information, or to debug functional
(including recursive) code with a debugger.

Or even (in Algol 68), besides

     x := ( cond | a | b)

also

     ( cond | a | b) := x

i.e. to specify the target variable (the "lvalue") conditionally.

What makes you think the language was inspired by ML?  I
didn't notice any resemblance.

In retrospect, I think it was mostly superficial similarities in
syntax.  `func foo(n) = ... end` is visually similar to
`fun foo n = ...`.

But I think I was too quick to assume a connection, and that
that it is just coincidence.

You're not.  I don't recall anyone asking for your credentials.
(You've offered them without being asked.)  I'm not generally asked
for mine either.

I judge your statements about C on their own merits.

If your credentials included being named Kernighan or Ritchie,
or being on the ISO C committee, I would consider that relevant.
Saying you've implemented your own C compiler is perhaps somewhat
relevant, but is overridden by your visible disregard of the standard
for the language you implemented.

Note that I wrote "disregard", not "dislike".

I recently asked you to read and understand the definitions
of several terms in the glossary of the C standard: undefined,
unspecified, and implementation-defined behavior, and unspecified
an implementation-defined value.  Have you done so?  And a followup
question: Why haven't you?

It started because of this comment:

DC: "It may make sense to you, but I've seen no evidence that you [BC]
understand the matter particularly well.  Indeed, I see quite a
bit of evidence for the opposite.  Nevermind the larger context"

to which I gave a summary of my background. It grew from there, in 
response to troll-like, goading comments like:

"Lots of people write toy compilers and design simple derivative
langauges for fun; that does not make them experts."

I should have detected that much sooner; my bad.

Thank you. This was a point I tried to make too.

(Well, I dislike it too. Lots of things could have been defined more 
tidily and more simply, but that's just me in PL-designer mode.)

Because I don't want to and don't want to have to (I know this is your 
thing).

My entire point is that this should be intuitive, somebody should be 
able to write "a * b" without reading a 700-page reference first.

As to the question of overflow, since they are using a lower-level 
language with primitive machine types, they shouldn't expect anything 
clever; they just need a simple statement of what might happen.

I think I summarised the possibilities in a recent post. So there are 
two things:

* A cheat-sheet summarising how C and typical compilers deal with it now

* What my preference would be if C was to change

I think these have already been convered.

Meanwhile I will probably add '-fwrapv' to 'fno-strict-aliasing' in my 
script for compiling generated C when using gcc**.

It might cost some percentage points in performance, but it will have 
gained some due to programs being presented in a single file so allowing 
whole-program optimisation.

(** A bug in Tiny C stops me using that. While I can't use my bcc 
because transpiled C is mainly used to support running on other platforms.)

I think I see your misunderstanding.

Dan Cross (who can correct me if I've misinterpreted him) told you
that he saw "no evidence that you understand the matter particularly
well".  That was, I'm reasonably sure, based entirely on what you've
written here.

You replied with a summary of your background, apparently intended
to prove your "credentials".

Nobody asked for that, and it doesn't matter here.  Dan correctly
said that your background does not tell us that what you say about
C has more credibility than if we knew nothing about you.

What you write here matters here.  What you've done elsewhere
doesn't.  I don't think anyone here has said otherwise.  You started
the whole "credentials" thing by bragging about your past projects.

You've demonstrated an inability to correctly infer what other
people are thinking, so perhaps you thought Dan was asking you to
share your background as evidence that you understand C.

Well, that's just too bad.  It's not as intuitive as you think it
should be.  C is not what you want it to be.

You think C is a "low-level" language, and therefore it must treat
overflow in the simple way you prefer.

You're wrong.

I could note that when programming in assembly - and I've done a lot of 
microcontroller assembly programming - I made sure calculations in the 
code did not overflow.  It does not matter that the processor manuals 
unambiguously defined the effect of overflow in instruction execution - 
wrong answers are wrong answers.  (Partial calculations could, of 
course, make use of defined wrapping semantics, carry flags, etc., but 
not actual application calculations.)

What exactly is the point of this subthread? If it is simply to state 
that signed overflow in C is UB, then just say it and move on, perhaps 
giving a reference to the standard. There is nothing more to be said.

But some of the discussion touched on fantasy alternatives. In that 
case, the UB mentioned in the standard is irrelevant. It is something 
new that is not in the standard.


BTW this is what I said in my first post in the thread, in reply to wij 
(2-May-26 14:18 BST):

-----------------
I ran your example with 6 compilers, with and without optimising, and 
all returned -2.

This is what would be expected on a machine where 'int' is 32 bits and 
representation is two's complement. Because INT_MAX, which is 011...111 
in binary, is multiplied by two, effectively shifting it left by one 
bit, to get 111...110, which is the bit-pattern for -2.

It is UB in C because up to C23, other integer representations were 
deemed possible, with different behaviour on overflow. But that hasn't 
really been the case for decades.

C23 now accepts two's complement is dominant, but the UB stays, since so 
many compilers have taken advantage of it for optimisation purposes. In 
this example I guess there wasn't an opportunity to do anything weird.

In the compilers I write and in the languages I implement, such overflow 
behaviour is guaranteed, when an i32 calculation needs to have an i32 
result.

With other people's optimising C compilers, then you either cross your 
fingers, [or] find which option is needed to give your desired behaviour.

Since the language itself won't help. So much for 'portable assembly'!

It appears to be the C Standard.

See above. Alternatives were discussed.

No, 'lower-level'. 'Low-level' usually means assembly.

> You're wrong.

Given the amount of UB there is, and the way you guys go on about it, it 
seems there is plenty of scope for a C implementation to be nearly as 
close to assembly as some thing people think. Certainly in the case of 
signed overflow.

So I think you're wrong.

I'm surprised you don't follow.  What I meant is that I believe
all of us (you, me, and Dan Cross) agree that we should be able to
decide the merits or otherwise of what I say, purely on my words.
Your credentials (past projects, etc.), are irrelevant.  I don't
speak for Dan, but I see he has confirmed this.

We're in agreement that what you write here about C is relevant,
and your credentials, or anyone else's, are not.

(You presented your credentials for some reason, but nobody had
asked for them.)

So what exactly don't you follow?

[...]

I've tried doing exactly that on numerous occasions, but you respond
with complaints.  You appear to be unable to see a reference
to undefined behavior and not complain about it or deliberately
misunderstand it.

I'm guessing that by "fantasy alternatives" you mean things like
nasal demons.  The point of these fantasy alternatives is to clarify
just what "undefined behavior" means.  You don't care what the
standard means by that technical term, so I don't know why you're
still talking about it.

And those results are irrelevant to what "undefined behavior" means.
But you don't care what "undefined behavior" means, so I won't
elaborate.  (Most people don't care about what the ISO C standard
means by "undefined behavior", but they don't talk about it.)

[...]

It's UB because the C standard says it's UB.  We could discuss the
historical factors that led to what the C standard says, but you
don't care what it says or means so it's pointless to do so.

C23 mandates two's complement as the only permitted representation
for signed integers.  It did not change the fact that signed
overflow has undefined behavior.  Is there any point in discussing
the reasons behind that?

This is comp.lang.c.  comp.lang.misc exists, and would be a good place
to discuss your other languages.

Or you understand and accept what the C standard says, and write
your code accordingly.

To be clear, I have no problem with someone writing non-portable
code that relies in a particular implementation and set of options.
If you need wraparound for some reason, that's probably easier than
implementing it in 100% portable C.

> Since the language itself won't help. So much for 'portable assembly'!

Right, C is not portable assembly.  You've made that argument yourself.
We're in agreement.

You snipped the context, so I'll ignore that.

Fine.  You think C is a lower-level language (lower than what?),
and therefore it must treat overflow in the simple way you prefer.
You're wrong.

Certainly, a conforming C compiler could guarantee wraparound
semantics for signed overflow.  This is not news.

You understand, of course, that most C compilers don't do this,
and none are required to.  In fact, there doesn't seem to be a lot
of demand for such compilers, though some do provide options for it
(disabled by default).

You're still wrong.

That's the point - that's exactly what he did. He judged your lack of
competence at C by looking at the words you've written about it. The
evidence he was referring to was those words.

...

The C standard merely "imposes no requirements" on the behavior. People
like you seem to underestimate the significance of "no requirements".
People explaining such things use "fantasy" alternatives to make them
more memorable. It's perfectly true that the C standard allows nasal
demons. It's only reality that prohibits them. In recent years I've
preferred to use realistic examples rather than more memorable but
unrealistic examples, just because people seem to misunderstand why
unrealistic examples were being used.

It's important to understand that the consequences could be far less
bizarre, and still be unacceptably bad. Once execution of code that has
undefined behavior becomes inevitable, an implementation is free to
generate machine code with any behavior that is convenient. The single
most common form of this is that if something needs to be true in order
for the behavior to be undefined, the implementation is free to optimize
on the assumption that it won't be true at the time the code is
executed. For code with defined behavior, this allows removal of dead
code, which is why people want their implementations to perform such
optimizations. For people relying upon behavior that they incorrectly
believe to be required, such optimizations often results in their
expectations being dashed.

It's generally hard to infer what other people are thinking.
That's why we infer from what other people are saying. :-)

What I wondered was why the repeatedly stated and explained
facts haven't been considered.

When reading the discussions with Bart I sometimes got the
mental picture of a mistake that "some" chess players make;
they're intellectually capable of thinking out a tactical
attack 5+ moves ahead, but disregard completely what the
opponent might do, and then wonder why they are checkmated
in the 3rd move.

Dan's comment is factually grounded.  Dan tends to be very careful about 
his wording, as far as I have seen.

Again, that is factual.

You are inferring things - including imagined insults - from what he 
wrote.  Dan did not say you wrote toy compilers, nor did he say (here) 
that you were not an expert - he said that the experience of having 
written a compiler or designed a programming language does not 
automatically mean that person is an expert on compilers, language 
design, or any particular language.

People should judge /your/ expertise, or lack thereof, in language 
design, knowledge of C, or anything else based on your posts.  They 
should not judge it on what you say about the tools you have written or 
your economic success.  (They can perhaps judge your business sense on 
your economic success - but there is no reason to suppose that it is 
remotely connected to your choice to use your own language, or any 
details of that language.  Maybe if your software had been written in C, 
name "Autocad" would only be found in history books.  The point is, such 
"credentials" are of no relevance one way or the other.)

People can, and do, write C code without reading the standards.  It's as 
simple as learning "signed integer overflow is undefined behaviour, 
which you should avoid - make sure your calculations do not overflow". 
In order to use signed arithmetic safely, efficiently and correctly in C 
programming, people need to understand one single sentence.  And that 
sentence is entirely intuitive - it's a bad idea to try to do something 
that can't possibly give you a sensible answer.

People don't need to know what might happen on overflow - they need to 
know not let overflow happen.  And that is an extremely simple concept, 
right alongside "do not divide by zero" and "don't play in the traffic".

You mean this is something you want, because you have certainly 
demonstrated that you don't know what should be on that cheat-sheet. 
You don't even seem to understand that some of the spaces should be left 
intentionally blank.

>

That is completely irrelevant.

You can have your opinions (we all have things that we'd prefer were 
different in C) - but they are not qualified opinions, and they have no 
bearing on reality.

And since you have such a difficult time grasping basic logic, let me 
point out that saying this does not imply that I think my own opinions 
are authoritative or influential.  The opinions of a number of regulars 
here should be respected on the grounds that they have demonstrated 
intimate knowledge of C and a care towards accurately spreading that 
knowledge - that still does not make them either authoritative or 
particularly influential.
