::: I don't understand "try the sequence". Do you want those numbers expressed as Zeckendorf numbers (instead of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ..., 20)? The '''generic''' REXX example doesn't ''use'' a sequence at all. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 23:22, 23 October 2012 (UTC)
 
:::: Never mind, I thought "solved without using a Fibonacci sequence" meant "using some other sequence in its place", which obviously was my misunderstanding. --[[User:Ledrug|Ledrug]] 00:29, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
 
: Also, the '''general''' REXX solution solves the task for '''N''' Zeckendorf numbers, which merely generates a Fibonacci sequence whose last numer is greater or equal to '''N''' (instead of hard coding six Fibonacci numbers). I think it'd be a better task to list up to '''N''' Zeckendorf numbers, with 20 being the default. That way, no short cuts would be used in the examples and thereby hiding the limitations of the programs. -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] 21:34, 23 October 2012 (UTC)
