Finding Fibonacci sequence in C#. [Project Euler Exercise]

Question

I\'m having some trouble with this problem in Project Euler.

Here\'s what the question asks:

Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding t

Answer 1

Your problem is not that your code contains a bug; your problem is that your code contains a bug and you don't know how to find it. Solve the second problem first, and then you won't need to ask us when you have a bug, you'll be able to find it yourself.

Learning how to find bugs is hard and takes a lot of practice. Here's how I would approach this problem.

I'd start by simplifying the problem down to something I could do myself. Instead of "what's the sum of the even fib numbers that do not exceed four million?" I'd ask "what's the sum of the even fib numbers that do not exceed 40?" That's easy to work out by hand -- 2 + 8 + 34 = 44.

Now run your program in a debugger, stepping through each line, and see where things go wrong. Does your program actually add up 2, 8 and 34? And if so, does it get the correct result?
