What do I have to do to check for an odd number and a multiple of 7
var results: [Int] = []
for n in 1...100 {
// Enter your code below
if n % 2 == 0 && 7 % 2 == 0 {
results.append(n)
}
// End code
}

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 33,271 Pointsright now you're checking if n is even and if 7 mod 2 is 0. a number is odd if n mod 2 is 1, and a number is divisible by another number if n mod x = 0. mod gives you the remainder of division, so if the result is 0, then the first number is divisible by the second. tweak it a little and let us know if you got it.

Courses Plus Student 1,740 PointsI was able to pass the challenge with your explanation but. I understand the odd number part but i thought you had to mod 7 by the number why is it n mod 7?
