# TASK #2
# Write a script to display first 20 Leonardo Numbers. Please checkout wiki page for more information.
# For example:
#
# L(0) = 1
# L(1) = 1
# L(2) = L(0) + L(1) + 1 = 3
# L(3) = L(1) + L(2) + 1 = 5
# and so on.
#
# method: because we have the growing series directly available to
# refer to no recursion is required. I have made the function
# return a list for any quantity > 0, displayed with a nice little
# header.
#
# As-is can handle up to L(90)
# L(90) = 5,760,134,388,741,632,239
