== Merge with [[Negafibonacci]] ==
I'm wondering if this page should be merged with [[Negafibonacci]]. Thoughts? [[User:Jaswenso|Jaswenso]] ([[User talk:Jaswenso|talk]]) 08:58, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
Line 7 ⟶ 14:
I have edited the article. Zero simply cannot be encoded. Zero is represented as the empty sum, but you need at least one term to terminate a code, just as with normal Fibonacci coding. Unfortunately I can't find any sources that aren't copies of Wikipedia or anything better. This is one sad article. --[[User:Jonathanvt|Jonathanvt]] ([[User talk:Jonathanvt|talk]]) 09:50, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
==Encoding==
The described algorithm is wrong. Counterexample: -18. Algorithm fails after generating [-21,5] instead of [-21,2,1]. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/77.172.9.250|77.172.9.250]] ([[User talk:77.172.9.250#top|talk]]) 01:47, 12 March 2019 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
== Title case? ==
Is the a good reason for the unusual case used in this article's title? If not, then it should be moved to [[Negafibonacci coding]]. – [[User:Scyrme|Scyrme]] ([[User talk:Scyrme|talk]]) 15:45, 26 August 2022 (UTC)
:I've gone ahead and moved it; rationale, as given in the edit summary: {{tq|Reliable sources use it without the irregular unhyphenated, mid-word capitalisation, so there's no reason the title of the article should use this bizarre capitalisation}}. – [[User:Scyrme|Scyrme]] ([[User talk:Scyrme|talk]]) 23:03, 23 September 2022 (UTC)
