How do I perform a fibonacci search algorithm in Matlab?

1 view (last 30 days)
I am trying to perform a simple search algorithm (fibonacci search) for an array [2,3,5,7,9,10,19 ,20] that performs similarly to a linear search (for the position of an element (target search key) within the array. Can anyone assist me?
I have a linear search as follows:
function output = Search(data, key) % function
n = 0;
output = [];
for k = 1:1:length(data) % go through elements 1:N
if (data(k) == key) % element = key
n = n + 1;
output(n) = k; % position
end
end
end
------------------------
>> Search([2 3 5 7 9 10 19 20], 20) will return me 8.

alifiyah - the Fibonacci search algorithm seems fairly straightforward. What problem are you having with implementing it?
