I was going through the "miscellaneous nodes" section and found this one of many to be interesting. So... I thought I would do a little digging and sure enough, consistent with one of the many glories of Perl (there is a module for just about everything), I found one, on CPAN, that generates Fibonacci numbers and related things.
This is the CPAN documentation URL:
http://search.cpan.org/author/VIPUL/Math-Fibonacci-1.5/lib/Math/Fibonacci.pm
And here is a little chunk of code, (all of 5 lines), which generates a 10 number Fibonacci Series:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use Math::Fibonacci qw(series);
my @fibonacci=series(10);
print "@fibonacci\n";

The wonders of Perl!

• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
