// This program finds the total number of possible combinations that can be used to
// climb statirs . EG : for 3 stairs ,combination and output will be 1,1,1 , 1,2 , 2,1 i.e 3 .
import java.util.Scanner;

public static void main(String args[]){
int count_stairs=0;

//Asking for number of steps to find combination.
System.out.println("Enter total number of Stairs:");
count_stairs = input.nextInt();
Staircase_problem sp = new Staircase_problem();
// Making object of this class and passing stair number to the function.
int final_steps = sp.possibilities_count(count_stairs);
//Printing the number of combination which is given by the function.

int result = a;
//Using Recursion to find the total number of stairs as f(a) = f(a-1) + a(a-2)
// where f(a) is the final result
if(result <= 1){
result = 1;
}else{
result = possibilities_count(a-1) + possibilities_count(a-2);

/* Output
Enter total number of Stairs:

Total Number of possible Combinations = 5
