Let Fn be the nth term in the Fibonacci sequence
and Ln the nth term in the Lucas sequence.
The main idea here is to give a method
to compute F1200 from smaller terms in the
sequences Fn and Ln.
If we know F12, F13, L12 and L13 we can find F1200.
We use the following identities:
F(n+m) = ½(FnLm + LnFm) (1)
L(n+m) = ½(LnLm + 5FmFn). (2)
We also need the duplication formulas:
L2n = Ln²-2(-1)^n
F2n = Ln*Fn
Plan of attack: Note that 1200 = 75*16.
So it is enough to find L75 and F75 and then
use the duplication formula 4 times to
get F1200.
So we have F12 = 144, F13 = 233,
L12 = 322, L13 = 521
and we get
L25 167761
F25 75025
from (1) and (2).
Now the duplication formulas give
L50 28143753123
F50 12586269025
Applying (1) and (2) once more yields
L75 4721424167835364
F75 2111485037978050
Finally, applying the duplication formula 4 more times,
we get the desired result:
F1200 =

Here's the formula.

1/√5[((1 + √5)/2)^1200) - ((1 - √5)/2)^1200)]

Good luck in computing this number. It is absolutely enormous!

By the way. You don't mean "What is the last digit of the 1200th number" do you?

If yes, search the archives. That question was answered a few days ago.

Unless I have made a typo, but I looked at it about ten times to make sure. =D

wow! unless there is a formula to figure this out this would take forever. sorry but I don't know what to tell you.
