Project Euler Problem 2: https://projecteuler.net/problem=2
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.
