Making a matrix of fibonacci values and the corresponding number of elements to get 5702887? Using a while loop I am not sure where to begin. I was given that the output must be 5702887 and there should be 26-39 elements in the vector and that I must use a while loop

Do you know how to calculate Fibonacci numbers? Do you know how to write a while loop? Do you know how to iteratively assign values to the elements of a vector in a loop? That is where to begin.

last_generated = 0;
while last_generated < 5702887
generate another one
last_generated = generated value
end

Look at this example:
results = []; currentvalue = 0;
while currentvalue < 5
thisvalue = rand();
results(end+1) = thisvalue;
currentvalue = currentvalue + thisvalue;
end
length(results)
