%N The average cycle length of cycles in Fibonacci-like sequences modulo n over all starting pairs of remainders.

%C a(n) = Round(A233246(n)/n^2.

%C If n is in A064414, then a(n) is the average distance between two neighboring multiples of n.

%C If n is in A064414, then a(n)/2 is the average distance to the next zero over all starting pairs of remainders.

%e For n=4 there are four possible cycles: A trivial cycle of length 1: 0; two cycles of length 6: 0,1,1,2,3,1; and a cycle of length 3: 0,2,2. Hence, a(4)=Round((1+9+36+36)/16)=5.

%t cl[i_, j_, n_] := (step = 1; first = i; second = j;

%t next = Mod[first + second, n];

%t While[second != i || next != j, step++; first = second;

%t second = next; next = Mod[first + second, n]]; step)

%t Table[Round[

%t Total[Flatten[Table[cl[i, j, n], {i, 0, n - 1}, {j, 0, n - 1}]]]/

%t n^2], {n, 70}]
