I did say something along the lines of 'C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot; C++ makes it harder, but when you do, it blows your whole leg off.'
Since you've introduced the matrix form for the fibonacci recurrence, I think it would interest your readers to decompose to PDP^-1 form and thereby derive the closed form formula one reader mentions.
I am being sponsored by Syntress! They bought me an amazing dedicated server to run catonmat on. If you're looking web services, I highly recommend the Syntress guys!
