Chapter 8, Problem 9SA

Explanation of Solution

The computations proceed as follows:

list[0] = 1

list[1] = 2

Inside the for loop:

1^stiteration:

i = 2

list[2] = list[2-1] * list[2-2] = list[1] * list[0] = 2 * 1 = 2

2^nditeration:

i = 3

list[3] = list[3-1] * list[3-2] = list[2] * list[1] = 2 * 2 = 4

3^rditeration:

i = 4

list[4] = list[4-1] * list[4-2] = list[3] * list[2] = 4 * 2 = 8

4^thiteration:

i = 5

list[5] = list[5-1] * list[5-2] = list[4] * list[3] = 8 * 4...
