2,418 PointsAnybody can help on this one, still not sure about the wording of the question.
I understand the if statements and the operators I think its putting it all together. And also what is a good use for this in a app?
var results: [Int] = [0, 7, 21, 35, 49, 63, 77, 91,]
for n in 1...100 {
// Enter your code below
if (n % 7 == 0 && 5 & 2 != 0)
// End code
}

var results: [Int] = []
for n in 1...100 {
// Enter your code below
if (n % 7 == 0 && n % 2 != 0) {
results.append(n)
}
// End code
}
Hope this helped! :-D

I'm not understanding this one. I don't understand the operators logic in the if line of code (n % 7 == 0 && n % 2 != 0) how does it check for odd numbers?
Maria Te
8,521 Pointswell the part that says n%2 != 0, then that means n is not divisible by two. And only odd numbers aren't divisible by 2. so I guess that's your answer

30,773 PointsIt looks like you solved the problem, but to answer your second question--what use does this have for apps--this is a very common programming puzzle often called "FizzBuzz." Chances are if you interview for an app developer job, you might end up having to solve this problem.
Realistically speaking, you might use some code like this so that every other table view cell is a different color, or something like that. A problem like this is a good way of simply learning Swift syntax, like loops, equality checking, conditionals, comparators, etc.
