My next step is if the input is not in the Fibonacci Series, the program has to give an output with a number which is in the series that is nearest to the input. I do not kn

Update

Here's a more efficient method which uses Binet's formula to first approximate y: F(y) = n. It then uses a pair of identities related to the matrix form (which can compute F(n) in O(log(n)) time) to recursively find the nearest Fibonacci numbers to n. The recursion is quite fast because it uses a cache to hold values that have already been computed. Without the cache this algorithm is roughly the same speed as Rockybilly's.

from math import log, sqrt

def fast_fib(n, cache={0: 0, 1: 1}):
    if n in cache:
        return cache[n]
    m = (n + 1) // 2
    a, b = fast_fib(m - 1), fast_fib(m)
    fib = a * a + b * b if n & 1 else (2 * a + b) * b
    cache[n] = fib
    return fib

logroot5 = log(5) / 2
logphi = log((1 + 5 ** 0.5) / 2)

def nearest_fib(n):
    if n == 0:
        return 0
    # Approximate by inverting the large term of Binet's formula
    y = int((log(n) + logroot5) / logphi)
    lo = fast_fib(y)
    hi = fast_fib(y + 1)
    return lo if n - lo < hi - n else hi

for i in range(35):
    print(i, nearest_fib(i))

output

Note that fast_fib uses a default mutable argument for the cache, but that's ok here because we want the cache to remember its previous contents.

In my speed tests a default mutable argument cache is faster than any other form of cache but it has the downside that it's impossible to clear the cache from outside of the function, and if you add logic to the function for cache clearing it impacts the performance for the majority of the calls when you don't want to clear the cache.

Update

It is actually possible to clear a default mutable argument cache from outside the function. We can access a function's default arguments via its .__default__ attribute (or .func_defaults in old versions of Python 2; .__default__ works in Python 2.6, but not in 2.5).

Eg,

d = fast_fib.__defaults__[0]
d.clear()
d.update({0: 0, 1: 1})

Here is some code (which runs on Python 2 and Python 3) that performs timing tests on some of the algorithms submitted for this question. Rockybilly's is very similar to my first version except it avoids having to save the previous value. I've also made the OP's fibs generator a little more compact.

Douglas's code is ok for small numbers, or when the argument is, in fact, a Fibonacci number, but it gets very slow for large non-Fibonacci numbers due to the slow one-by-one search. I've been able to optimize it a little by avoiding recalculation of various quantities, but that doesn't make a huge difference to the running speed.

In this version, my fast_fib() function uses a global cache so that it can be cleared between tests to make the timings fairer.

Keeping the previous fibonacci is not necessary if you don't mind making an extra generator call.

First store the generator inside a variable.

gen = fibs()

n = int(input("please, enter a number: "))
for fib in gen:
    if n == fib:
        print("Yes! Your number is a Fibonacci number!")
        break
    if fib > n:
        print("No! Your number is not a Fibonacci number!")

        next_fib = next(gen)
        prev = next_fib - fib 
        closest = prev if n - prev < fib - n else fib # Search for Python ternary operator
                                                      # If you are a stranger to this line of code. 
        print("The closest fibonacci number to your entry is %s" % closest)

        break

Edit: I first used gen.next() to get the next value of the yield, however I forgot that in Python 3, it is renamed as usage to gen.__next__(). Please take care using it. next(gen) is the expected usage for both Python versions.

Why this method works well:

This is a way that does not require previous computation, so is fantastic for performance and such when checking very large numbers.

The Program:

from math import *

n = int(input("Enter a number:"))

if sqrt(5*n**2+4)%1==0 or sqrt(5*n**2-4)%1==0:
    print("Your number is a Fibonacci number!")
else:
    print("Your number is not a Fibonacci number.")
    c = 0
    while 1:
        c += 1
        if sqrt(5*(n+c)**2+4)%1==0 or sqrt(5*(n+c)**2-4)%1==0:
            print("%s is the closest Fibonacci number to your entry." % str(n+c))
            break
        if sqrt(5*(n-c)**2+4)%1==0 or sqrt(5*(n-c)**2-4)%1==0:
            print("%s is the closest Fibonacci number to your entry." % str(n-c))
            break

The Explanation:

If (5*n^2 + 4) or (5*n^2 – 4) is a perfect square, then n is a Fibonacci number.

Program Input/Output

Enter a number: 9999999999
Your number is not a Fibonacci number.
9999816735 is the closest Fibonacci number to your entry.


Enter a number: 9999816735
Your number is a Fibonacci number!

You could zip fibs with itself:

n = int(input("please, enter a number: "))
for fib, next_fib in itertools.izip(fibs(), itertools.islice(fibs(), 1, None)):
    if n == fib:
        print("Yes! Your number is a Fibonacci number!")
        break
    if next_fib > n:
        closest = fib if n - fib < next_fib - n else next_fib
        print("The closest Fibonacci number is {}".format(closest))
        break

You could use itertools.tee to optimize it a bit.
