'Description: Creates a Fibonacci series F(N) = F(N-1) + F(N-2) , where F(0) = F(1) = 1.'
' E.g. Fibonacci(20). It recursively calls the Fibonacci function to create the series.
' Each member F(N) is the sum of the two previous members F(N-1) and F(N-2).
'
' It calls the Private Function Fib(N) which creates the members one at a time, recursively
'
'Return Value: The Fibonacci Series of the number passed to the function.

'Return Type: Variant
