Digital Sum Fibonacci

Question

We are all familiar with the Fibonacci sequence:

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, 1597, 2584, 4181, 6765

However, instead of, f(n) = f(n-1) + f(n-2) we'll be taking digital sum of the previous 2 entries.

---

The sequence should still start with 0, 1, after that the differences are rapidly apparent. This list is 0-indexed, you may use 1-indexed as well, state which you used.

f(0)  = 0
f(1)  = 1
f(2)  = 1   # 0 + 1
f(3)  = 2   # 1 + 1
f(4)  = 3   # 1 + 2
f(5)  = 5   # 2 + 3
f(6)  = 8   # 3 + 5
f(7)  = 13  # 8 + 5
f(8)  = 12  # 8 + 1 + 3
f(9)  = 7   # 1 + 3 + 1 + 2
f(10) = 10  # 1 + 2 + 7
f(11) = 8   # 7 + 1 + 0
f(12) = 9   # 1 + 0 + 8
f(13) = 17  # 8 + 9
f(14) = 17  # 9 + 1 + 7
f(15) = 16  # 1 + 7 + 1 + 7
f(16) = 15  # 1 + 7 + 1 + 6
f(17) = 13  # 1 + 6 + 1 + 5
f(18) = 10  # 1 + 5 + 1 + 3
f(19) = 5   # 1 + 3 + 1 + 0
f(20) = 6   # 1 + 0 + 5
f(21) = 11  # 5 + 6
f(22) = 8   # 6 + 1 + 1
f(23) = 10  # 1 + 1 + 8
f(24) = 9   # 8 + 1 + 0
f(25) = 10  # 1 + 0 + 9
f(26) = 10  # 9 + 1 + 0
f(27) = 2   # 1 + 0 + 1 + 0
(After this point it repeats at the 3rd term, 0-indexed)

Note: I didn't notice the repetition until I posted the challenge itself, and here I was thinking it'd be impossible to write another novel Fibonacci challenge.

Your task is, given a number n, output the nth digit of this sequence.

First 3 digits: [0,1,1],

24-digit repeated pattern: [2,3,5,8,13,12,7,10,8,9,17,17,16,15,13,10,5,6,11,8,10,9,10,10]

Hint: You may be able to exploit this repetition to your advantage.

Answer 1

JavaScript (ES6), 45 bytes

f=(n,x=0,y=1)=>n?f(n-1,y,(x%9||x)+(y%9||y)):x

<input type=number min=0 oninput=o.textContent=f(this.value)><pre id=o>

x and y can't both be 9, since that would require the previous number to be 0, so their digital sum can't exceed 17. This means that the digital root for numbers greater than 9 is the same as the remainder modulo 9.

Answer 2

Python 2, 53 bytes

f=lambda n:n>1and sum(map(int,`f(n-1)`+`f(n-2)`))or n

Recursive function. The base cases of n=0 and n=1 yield n, larger numbers calculate the value by calling f(n-1) and f(n-2) converting each to a string, concatenating the two strings, converting each character to an integer using a map with the int function, and then sums the resulting list.

---

Using the modulo-24 information I can currently get a 56 byte non-recursive unnamed function:

lambda n:int(('011'+'2358dc7a89hhgfda56b8a9aa'*n)[n],18)

Answer 3

JavaScript (ES6), 34 bytes

f=n=>n<2?n:~-f(--n)%9+~-f(--n)%9+2

May freeze your browser for inputs above 27 or so, but it does work for all input values. This can be verified with a simple cache:

c=[];f=n=>n<2?n:c[n]=c[n]||~-f(--n)%9+~-f(--n)%9+2

<input type=number value=0 min=0 step=1 oninput="O.value=f(this.value)"> <input id=O value=0 disabled>

As pointed out in Neil's brilliant answer, the output can never exceed 17, so the digital sum of any output above 9 is equal to n%9. This also works with outputs below 9; we can make it work for 9 as well by subtracting 1 with ~- before the modulus, then adding back in 1 after.

The best I could do with hardcoding is 50 bytes:

_=$=>$<2?$:eval([..._(--$)+[_(--$)]].join`+`)

Usage

_=$=>$<2?$:eval([..._(--$)+[_(--$)]].join`+`)
_(7)

Output

13

Explanation

This function checks if the input is smaller than 2, and if so, it returns the input. Otherwise, it creates an array of two values that are appended to each other as strings. Those two values are the result of calling the function with input - 1 and input - 2.

The ... operator splits this string into an array of characters, which then is converted to a string again, but now with +es between values. This string is then interpreted as code, so the sum is calculated, which is then returned.

This is a double-recursive algorithm, which makes it quite inefficient. It needs 2^n-2 function calls for input n. As such, here's a longer but faster solution. Thanks to ETHproductions for coming up with it.

0 indexed. Similar to some of the other answers I am indexing a lookup table of values but I have compressed it into 4 byte chunks. I didn’t bother investigating the mod 24 version because I didn’t think it was as interesting since the others have done so already but let’s face it, C isn’t going to win anyway.

Lengthy boring iterative solution that does direct digit-sum calculations each for loop. At the end of the loop, the number we want is in $b, so that's left on the pipeline and output is implicit. Note that if the input is 0, then the loop won't enter since the conditional is false, so $b remains 0.

R, 90 bytes

A horribly long solution, but it's better than the 108 I originally had. I suspect that there is a lot better way to do this, but I can't see it at the moment.

function(n,x=0:1){repeat`if`(n,{x=c(x,sum(scan(t=gsub('',' ',x))))[-1];n=n-1},break);x[1]}

This is an unnamed function that uses gsub and scan(t= to split the numbers in the vector into digits. The sum of these is added to the vector while the first item is dropped. repeat is used to step through the sequence n times and the result is the first item of the vector.
