Loops in terraform are run in parallel, but I found a way to create a "sequential" FOR loop. This type of loop can serve as a major building block to help build more complex algorithms in terraform that were simply not possible before.

Computing a Fibonacci sequence in Terraform
The title is really all there is to the question: how would you compute the values of a Fibonacci sequence (first N values, where N is an input variable) and store them in a Terraform local variable?
