Even Fibonacci Numbers

Python / Project Euler Problems

# Even Fibonacci numbers
#
# Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by 
# adding the previous two terms. By starting with 1 and 2, 
# the first 10 terms will be: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 
# 55, 89, ...
#
# By considering the terms in the Fibonacci sequence whose 
# values do not exceed four million, find the sum of the 
# even-valued terms.
