Exponential time is so unusual I completely left out of my article that discusses time complexity in #Python.
https://pym.dev/time-complexities/
You might counter with "we could use functools.cache to make it essentially linear time".
You're right. But this non-recursive version is pretty simple!
def fibonacci(n):
a = b = 1
for _ in range(n-1):
a, b = b, a+b
return a
And if you really cared about performance (you shouldn't) there's a constant time version.

Today's #Python tip was about how the only time I recommend using recursion is for creating tree-like structures or traversing tree-like structures.
I didn't make a very good case for this claim and I (rightfully) got some push back on this.
The 2 classic recursion-without-a-tree examples are factorial and fibonacci.
I believe both are better implemented without recursion.

It's possible in Python to dynamically define a function within another function and, we can even return that inner function so that it can be called it later.

Генеративный ИИ как штатный инженер техподдержки: настройка, внедрение, реальные ошибки
Эксперимент, начавшийся как попытка автоматизировать ответы на тикеты, закончился созданием почти самостоятельного "сотрудника" службы поддержки. В статье рассказываю, как мы внедряли генеративную модель в техподдержку, как настраивали контекст, ловили баги. Много практики, немного самоиронии и код, который заставил rethink-нуть наш пайплайн поддержки.

I'm not sure I can see the ground from the top of this teetering yak stack I am perched atop right now but does anyone happen to know why a fcntl struct on macOS would be laid out with no alignment, at least as per the distinction between the #python struct module's "=" vs. "@" layout
