The golden ration  phi    n   sqrt 5  is asymptotic to the fibonacci of n  if we round that value up  we indeed get the fibonacci value   function fib n        let phi    1   Math sqrt 5   2      let asymp   Math pow phi  n    Math sqrt 5        return Math round asymp      fib 1000      4 346655768693734e 208 in just 0 62s   This runs faster on large numbers compared to the recursion based solutions

fibonacci 1 000     10 000     100 000  Some answers run into issues when trying to calculate large fibonacci numbers  Others are approximating numbers using phi  This answer will show you how to calculate a precise series of large fibonacci numbers without running into limitations set by JavaScript s floating point implementation   Below  we generate the first 1 000 fibonacci numbers in a few milliseconds  Later  we ll do 100 000   const   fromInt  toString  add       Bignum  const bigfib   function   n   0      let a   fromInt  0    let b   fromInt  1    let     while  n  gt   0        yield toString  a          a     a   b     b   add  b         n   n -

Here is another one with proper tail call   The recursive inner fib function can reuse the stack because everything is needed  the array of numbers  to produce the next number is passed in as an argument  no additional expressions to evaluate   However tail call optimization introduced in ES2015   Also one drawback is it gets the array length in every iteration  but only once  to generate the following number and getting the elements of the array upon their index  it is faster though than pop or splice or other array methods  but I did not performance tested the whole solution    x000D   x000D  var fibonacci   function len    x000D    var fib   function seq    x000D      var seqLen   seq length  x000D      if  seqLen     len    x000D        return seq  x000D        else   x000D        var curr   seq seqLen - 1   x000D        var prev   seq seqLen - 2   x000D        seq seqLen    curr   prev  x000D        return fib seq   x000D        x000D      x000D    return len  lt  2    0    fib  0  1    x000D    x000D   x000D  console log fibonacci 100    x000D   x000D   x000D

I know this is a bit of an old question  but I realized that many of the answers here are utilizing for loops rather than while loops   Sometimes  while loops are faster than for loops  so I figured I d contribute some code that runs the Fibonacci sequence in a while loop as well  Use whatever you find suitable to your needs   function fib length      var fibArr           i   0      j   1    fibArr push i     fibArr push j     while  fibArr length  lt   length        fibArr push fibArr j    fibArr i        j        i          return fibArr     fib 15

You re not assigning a value to z  so what do you expect y z  to do  Likewise you re never actually reading from the array  It looks like you re trying a combination of two different approaches here    try getting rid of the array entirely  and just use      Initialization of x and y as before  for  i   2  i  lt   10  i          alert x   y       z   x   y      x   y      y   z      EDIT  The OP changed the code after I d added this answer  Originally the last line of the loop was y   z  - and that makes sense if you ve initialized z as per my code   If the array is required later  then obviously that needs to be populated still - but otherwise  the code I ve given should be fine

You should ve declared the fib variable to be an array in the first place  such as var fib      or var fib   new Array    and I think you re a bit confused about the algorithm  If you use an array to store the fibonacci sequence  you do not need the other auxiliar variables  x y z       var fib    0  1   for var i fib length  i lt 10  i          fib i    fib i-2    fib i-1     console log fib      Click for the demo  You should consider the recursive method too  note that this is an optimised version      function fib n  undefined       if fib cache n      undefined           fib cache n    fib n-1    fib n-2              return fib cache n     fib cache    0  1  1     and then  after you call the fibonacci function  you have all the sequence in the fib cache field      fib 1000   console log fib cache

Another implementation  while recursive is very fast and uses single inline function  It hits the javascript 64-bit number precision limit  starting 80th sequence  as do all other algorithms   For example if you want the 78th term  78 goes in the last parenthesis     function  n i p r  p  p  0  r  1 i i i 1 1 return i lt  n arguments callee n i r p  r  78      will return  8944394323791464  This is backwards compatible all the way to ECMASCRIPT4 - I tested it with IE7 and it works

I like the fact that there are so many ways to create a fibonacci sequence in JS  I will try to reproduce a few of them  The goal is to output a sequence to console  like  n  6  fiboNum  8    Good  ol closure   x000D   x000D     The IIFE form is purposefully omitted  See below  x000D   x000D  const fiboGenClosure        gt    x000D    let  a  b     0  1   x000D    let n   0  x000D    return  fiboNum   a    gt    x000D       a  b     b  a   b   x000D      return   x000D        n  n    x000D        fiboNum  fiboNum x000D         x000D       x000D    x000D   x000D     Gets the sequence until given nth number  Always returns a new copy of the main function  so it is possible to generate multiple independent sequences  x000D   x000D  const generateFiboClosure   n   gt    x000D    const newSequence   fiboGenClosure    x000D    for  let i   0  i  lt   n  i      x000D      console log newSequence     x000D      x000D    x000D   x000D  generateFiboClosure 21   x000D   x000D   x000D    Fancy ES6 generator  Similar to the closure pattern above  using the advantages of generator function  and for  of loop    x000D   x000D     The  n  argument is a substitute for index  x000D   x000D  function  fiboGen n   0    x000D    let  a  b     0  1   x000D    while  true    x000D      yield  a  n     x000D       a  b     b  a   b   x000D      x000D    x000D   x000D     Also gives a new sequence every time is invoked  x000D   x000D  const generateFibonacci   n   gt    x000D    const iterator   fiboGen    x000D    for  let  value  index  of iterator    x000D      console log   x000D        n  index  x000D        fiboNum  value x000D          x000D      if  index  gt   n  break  x000D      x000D    x000D   x000D  generateFibonacci 21   x000D   x000D   x000D    Tail call recursion  This one is a little tricky  because  now in late 2018  TC optimization is still an issue  But honestly     if you don t use any smart tricks to allow the default JS engine to  use a really big numbers  it will get dizzy and claims that the next fibonacci number is  Infinity  by iteration 1477  The stack would probably overflow somewhere around iteration 10 000  vastly depends on browser  memory etc      Could be probably padded by try    catch block or check if  Infinity  was reached    x000D   x000D  const fibonacciRTC    n  i   0  a   0  b   1    gt    x000D    console log   x000D      n  i  x000D      fibonacci  a x000D        x000D    if  n     0  return  x000D    return fibonacciRTC --n    i  b  a   b   x000D    x000D   x000D  fibonacciRTC 21  x000D   x000D   x000D    It can be written as a one-liner  if we throe away the console log thing and simply return a number    x000D   x000D  const fibonacciRTC2    n  a   0  b   1    gt  n     0   a   fibonacciRTC2 n - 1  b  a   b   x000D   x000D  console log fibonacciRTC2 21   x000D   x000D   x000D    Important note   As I found out reading this mathIsFun article  the fibonacci sequence is valid for negative numbers as well  I tried to implement that in the recursive tail call form above like that    x000D   x000D  const fibonacciRTC3    n  a   0  b   1  sign   n  gt   0   1   -1    gt     x000D    if  n     0  return a   sign  x000D   return fibonacciRTC3 n - sign  b  a   b  sign   x000D    x000D   x000D  console log fibonacciRTC3 8       21 x000D  console log fibonacciRTC3 -8       -21 x000D   x000D   x000D
