Once you go functional, you can never go back
The Haskell code in question:
fibs = 1:1:zipWith (+) fibs (tail fibs)
It's also a common showcase for Perl6 lazy lists:
my @fibs = 1, 1, * + * ... *;

Note that Perl6 uses big integers by default, so this will work even beyond the limit n=92 at which 64-bit integers will overflow.

I will admit perl 6 is pretty damn cool. I'll definitely have to look at it soon.
