Climbing Stairs

You are climbing a stair case. It takes  n  steps to reach to the top. Each time you can either climb 1 or 2 steps. In how many distinct ways can you climb to the top? Note:  Given  n  will be a positive integer. class Solution { public:     int climbStairs(int n) {         if (n == 0) return 0;                  if (n == 1) return 1;                  // dp space complexity is O(n)         vector<int> dp(n);         dp[0] = 1;         dp[1] = 2;                  for(int i = 2; i<n; i++)         {             dp[i] = dp[i-1] + dp[i-2];         }                  return dp[ n-1 ];     } };
