gollark: No. I've vaguely read about recurrence relations and differential equations being related to matrices but don't know much.

gollark: And how is this to be used for fibonnacious purposes? How does it *work*?
gollark: How do you do fibonacci with matrix multiplication?!?!?!?!
gollark: *My* language makes it impossible to recurse by dynamically inspecting the stack on all function calls (efficiently via something something SIMD/vectorization) and immediately halting if recursion is detected.
