The n-th Fibonacci number is given in closed form by

$F_n=\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}\left(\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}\right)^n- \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}}\left(\frac{1-\sqrt{5}}{2}\right)^n $

This is probably the most expiated discussion of $n$-th term of Fibonacci series in world wide web.

    Perhaps you should clarify what you mean by an "expiated discussion". IMO the linked page leaves much to be desired.2011-12-12
