Rabbits take one month to reach an age at which they may give birth.
Every month thereafter, a breeding pair of rabbits produce one further pair of rabbits.
Rabbits never die and never stop being able to produce further rabbits.
How many pairs of rabbits will be produced from this single pair of rabbits after one year?
