I'm having some real problems with a code that is supposed to find Fibonacci numbers using recursive, iterative, and optimized recursive techniques. I keep on getting this really strange error though: "fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR (compiler file 'msc1.cpp', line 1786) Please choose the technical Support command on the Visual C++ Help menu, or open the technical Support help file for more information Error executing cl.exe.". If anyone could think of some advice, it would be really helpful. Thanks!

        a = b;
        b = c;
    }           
    return b;

Try removing optimazation options 0g/ 0i/ 0a. Remove one at a time to see wich one might be the culprit.

Tried. Fixed. Still get the same error.
