I really suck at math. I mean, I REALLY suck at math. I'm trying to make a simple fibonacci sequence class for an algorithm I'll be using. I have seen the python example which looks something like this:
a = 0
b = 1
while b < 10:
    print b
    a, b = b, b+a
The problem is that I can't really make this work in any other language. I'd like to make it work in Java, since I can pretty much translate it into the other languages I use from there. This is the general thought:
    public class FibonacciAlgorithm {
	private Integer a = 0;
	private Integer b = 1;
	public FibonacciAlgorithm() {
	}
	public Integer increment() {
		a = b;
        b = a + b;
		return value;
	}
	public Integer getValue() {
		return b;
	}
}
All that I end up with is doubling, which I could do with multiplication :( Can anyone help me out? Math pwns me.
