Abstract

In this study, we investigate sets of remainder of the Jacobsthal and JacobsthalLucas numbers modulo m for some positive integers m. Also some properties related to these sets and a new method to calculate the length of period modulo m is given.

Keywords

Jacobsthal numbers, Jacobsthal-Lucas numbers, modulo, period.
