%N Fibonacci winding number: the number of 'mod n' operations in one cycle of the Fibonacci sequence modulo n.

%C If pi(n) is the n-th Pisano number (A001175) then a(n) is usually about pi(n)/2 - and in any case a(n) > pi(n)/4.

%F n*a(n) = sum{k=1..A001175(n)} fibonacci(k) mod n. [From Mircea Merca, Jan 03 2011]

%e a(8)=4 because one cycle of the Fibonacci numbers modulo 8 is 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5; 0, 5, 5; 2, 7; 1; - including 4 'mod 8' operations, each marked with a semi-colon.

%Y Cf. A001175, A015134, A214300.
