def fib1(n):
    if n == 0: return 0
    elif n == 1: return 1
    f2, f1 = 0, 1
    for _ in range(2, n+1):
        f2, f1 = f1, f2 + f1
    return f1

def fib2(n):
    if n == 0: return 0
    elif n == 1: return 1
    else: return fib2(n-1) + fib2(n-2)


Try calling fib1(35) and fib2(35). Still think only the input and output 
matter? :)


For the record, fib2(35) ends up making a total of 29860703 function 
calls, compared to 35 iterations for fib1.
