MicrosoftFacebookGroww

You have been given two integers ‘X’ and ‘Y’ which are the first two integers of a series and an integer ‘N’. You have to find the Nth number of the series using the Fibonacci rule given by f(x) = f(x - 1) + f(x - 2).

The answer may be very large, return it after modulus 10 ^ 9 + 7.

Note:

The series is 1-based indexed.
Problem approach

I solved the problem using the dynamic programming concept creating a 1-D array and using the previous 2 values to calculate the next final leading to the final result.
