Abstract

In this work we study the tribonacci numbers. We find a tribonacci triangle which is an analog of Pascal triangle. We also investigate an efficient method to compute any <TEX>$n$</TEX>th tribonacci numbers by matrix method, and find periods of the sequence by taking modular tribonacci number.
