RE: (11C) Tribonacci Sequence
I am a little confused as to how a tribonacci sequence can be a generalisation of a Fibonacci - though to be fair Wikipedia also uses that terminology.
I'd have thought a tribonacci would be a variation, but an n-bonacci capable of handling any number of summations would be a generalisation.Smile

But my main reason for posting isn't to quibble, but to enquire. I always find it helpful to think of applications to help focus upon the maths. Fibonacci always makes me think of rabbits, though I am sure that is not it's only use. Does the Tribonacci sequence have any practical use?
