gollark: 3.1 Using 2x2 matricesThe argument of iterateabove is a linear transformation, so we can represent it as matrix and compute the nth power of this matrix with O(log n) multiplications and additions.For example, using the simple matrix implementation in Prelude extensions,fib n = head (apply (Matrix [[0,1], [1,1]] ^ n) [0,1])
