Project Euler: Problem 2

Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding the previous two terms. By starting with 0 and 1, the first 12 terms will be:

0, 1, 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.
