C program to find fibonacci series using only one variable !!!

Problem:
Generating Fibonacci series using only one variable.

There are many ways to achieve this. I have given three ways to do this in the following methods.

Method #1:
We can have a simple function to do this.

Method #2:
The following recursive function would do the job.

Method #3:
The following one works great as well!

Cheers!!

The logic is to store both (n-2)th value in MSB & (n-1)th value in LSB of a single variable.

So, the iterations will take place as like,

i = (0,1) => 0000 0000 0000 0000 | 0000 0000 0000 0001
= (1,1) => 0000 0000 0000 0001 | 0000 0000 0000 0001
= (1,2) => 0000 0000 0000 0001 | 0000 0000 0000 0010
= (2,3) => 0000 0000 0000 0010 | 0000 0000 0000 0011

The while loop just checks the limit of an integer.
