Formula for the $n$th $k$-Generalized Fibonacci-like Number
In this paper we provided a formula for the $n$th term of the $k$-generalized Fibonacci-like sequence, a generalization of the well-known Fibonacci sequence, having $k$ arbitrary initial terms, where the succeeding terms are obtained by adding its previous $k$ terms. The formula for the $n$th term of the $k$-generalized Fibonacci-like sequence was obtained by observing patterns in the derived formula for the nth term of the Fibonacci-like, Tribonacci-like, and Tetrabonacci-like sequence. The formula for the $k$-generalized Fibonacci sequence was also derived and was used in the process of proving the main result of this paper.
