Given a staircase with n steps, we need to find the total number of distinct ways to climb it by taking 1 or 2 steps at a time. Sure, this can be done by a brute force method and finding all the possibilities, but there is a really easy way to understand this. This video shows how you can form building blocks and ultimately arrive at a very efficient solution. To make things easy, there is also a dry run of code in JAVA.
