Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Known Issues
    • Calling the Fibonacci calculation for very small inputs (n <= 1) can now crash with a runtime error.
    • Affects scenarios that rely on base-case Fibonacci results; other memoization and recursive behavior remains unchanged.
    • No changes to public interfaces or configuration.
    • Users may experience failures in features or workflows that compute initial Fibonacci values.

Walkthrough

The base-case in nth_fibonacci_util within main.py was modified to return an undefined variable m instead of n when n <= 1. No other logic or public interfaces were changed.

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Fibonacci base-case change

Poem

I nibbled the code and flipped an n to m,
Now the base case squeaks—oh, where’s the gem?
A hop, a fix, restore the plan,
Fibonacci bounces as only numbers can.
Carrot-commit made; ship it again! 🥕✨

Summary of Changes

Hello @arvi18, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request updates main.py with a single change. The modification is within the nth_fibonacci_util function, specifically altering the base case's return value. The change appears to introduce a bug by attempting to return an undefined variable, which will lead to a runtime error.

Highlights

  • Potential Bug Introduction: The base case if n <= 1: within the nth_fibonacci_util function was modified to return m instead of return n. This change introduces a NameError as m is not defined within the function's scope.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a critical bug into the nth_fibonacci_util function. The change replaces a correct return variable n with an undefined variable m in the function's base case. This will result in a NameError when the function is executed, breaking the program. This change should be reverted.

# Base case: if n is 0 or 1, return n
if n <= 1:
return n
return m

critical

This change introduces a NameError because the variable m is not defined in the scope of this function. For the base case of a Fibonacci sequence, the function should return n itself.

Suggested change
return m
return n

🤖 Refacto.AI: PR Summary & Reviewer Guide

🎯 1. The Goal (Why was this PR raised?)

This PR aims to modify the Fibonacci calculation utility function in main.py. The change appears to be a modification to the base case return value in the nth_fibonacci_util function.

🗺️ 2. The Changes (What was implemented?)

File Name Implementation Details Goal / Requirement Addressed
main.py (Modified) Changed the return value in the base case of the nth_fibonacci_util function from return n to return m Modify Fibonacci calculation logic

🤔 3. Key Areas for Human Review

Here are the most important areas to focus your review on, including specific testing instructions.

Area of Concern: Potential Logic Error in Fibonacci Calculation

  • File: main.py (Line 21)
  • Why: The change replaces the return value n with m in the base case, but there is no variable m defined in the function or passed as a parameter. This appears to be a clear logic error that would cause runtime errors.
  • Testing Instruction: Run the nth_fibonacci_util function with small values (0 and 1) to verify if the function throws a NameError due to the undefined variable m. Also check if this breaks any functionality that depends on this utility function.

Area of Concern: Impact on Memoization Logic

  • File: main.py (Lines 18-24)
  • Why: The function appears to be implementing a memoized Fibonacci calculation. The base case modification could affect the correctness of the entire recursive algorithm.
  • Testing Instruction: Test the function with various inputs (e.g., 5, 10, 20) to verify that it still correctly calculates Fibonacci numbers and properly utilizes the memoization table.

11-13: Avoid module-level execution; remove top-level invocation.

Running code at import time is a side effect and leads to duplicate/early execution before later redefinitions. Keep execution under the __main__ guard.

Apply this diff:

- n = 5
- result = nth_fibonacci(n)
- print(result)

72-75: Remove redundant top-level invocation at end of file.

This executes on import and after multiple redefinitions, causing surprising behavior and duplicate output.

Apply this diff:

- n = 5
- result = nth_fibonacci(n)
- print(result)

36-43: Rename shadowed nth_fibonacci variants & eliminate import-time calls

The file defines nth_fibonacci three times (lines 2, 36, 52) and also invokes it at import time (lines 12, 73), leading to order-dependent behavior and unintended execution on import. To clean up:

• Rename the plain recursive implementation (lines 2–12) to nth_fibonacci_recursive
• Rename the memoized wrapper (lines 36–44) to nth_fibonacci_memoized
• Rename the iterative version (lines 52–70) to nth_fibonacci_iterative
• Remove or guard the top-level result = nth_fibonacci(...) calls at lines 12 and 73
• In the if __name__ == "__main__" block (around line 45), call the desired variant, e.g.:

 if __name__ == "__main__":
     n = 5
-    result = nth_fibonacci(n)
+    result = nth_fibonacci_memoized(n)
     print(result)

⚠️ Potential issue

Fix undefined name in base case (NameError) and validate input.

Returning m triggers a runtime NameError on the base case. Ruff flagged this as F821. Return n and optionally guard against negative inputs.

(F821)

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In main.py around lines 19 to 22, the base case mistakenly returns an undefined
name `m` causing a NameError; change the return to `n` and add input validation
to guard against negative inputs (e.g., raise a ValueError when n < 0) so
callers get a clear error for invalid input before recursion/logic proceeds.
