Problem 2: Even Fibonacci Numbers
Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding the previous two terms. By starting with 1 and 2, the first 10 terms will be:
1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, ...
By considering the terms in the Fibonacci sequence whose values do not exceed four million, find the sum of the even-valued terms.
total = 0
L = [1, 1]
while L[-1] + L[-2] <= 4000000:
var = L[-1] + L[-2]
L.append(var)
if var % 2 == 0:
total += var
print(L)
print(total)
