# A ruby program for Lucas series
#
# The Lucas numbers, commonly denoted L(n) form a sequence,
# called the Lucas series, such that each number is the sum
# of the two preceding ones, starting from 2 and 1. That is,
#
# L(0) = 2, L(1) = 1
# L(n) = L(n - 1) + L(n - 2), for n > 1.
#
# Given n, calculate L(n).
# Example: 2 1 3 4 7 11 18...
# Resource: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucas_number
