Write a program in python that solves the following exercise, need an explanation of the solution:

Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding the previous two terms. By starting with 1 and 2, the first 10 terms will be:

1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, ...

By considering the terms in the Fibonacci sequence whose values do not exceed four million, find the sum of the even-valued terms.

Expert Solution
Step 1
  • Since, the first values in Fibonacci series are 1 and 2, so we assigned 1 and 2 firstly,
  • Inside while loop firstly generate the Fibonacci sequence by adding previous two terms staring by 1 and 2.and if statements runs till the value of n is less than 4 million.
  • Displaying Fibonacci sequence.
  • After that, sum is initialized with 0, If n is even then its added in sum else ignored.
  • Displaying all even terms in Fibonacci sequence.
