The challenge

Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding the previous two terms.
By starting with 1 and 2, the first 10 terms will be:

1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, …

By considering the terms in the Fibonacci sequence whose values do not exceed four million,
find the sum of the even-valued terms*.

Write your solution as efficiently as possible in one of the following languages: Python, C++, or C#.

Official submissions are closed, but you can always send your solution to communication@demcon.com.

* This problem is taken from Project Euler.
