    I have got it to print:

    10 11 12 13 14 15 16...........33

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    int main(void)
    {
        int i,
            k = 0,
            sum = 0;
    
        for(i = 10; i <= 33; i++)
        {
            sum += i;
                printf("%3d", i);
    
        if( k == 5 )
            {
                printf("\n");
            }
    
        }
    
    }

    Did you try using the code I posted for you?

    Your code is not the same, and of course, it won't do what you want.

    I'm not enjoying your "let's act MR", bit.

    Yes, I tried your code and all I got was errors.

    Then you need to improve your copy and paste skills. Highlight the code (all of it), right-click, choose "Copy", go to your IDE and open up a new file, click "Paste".

    My Copy Paste skills are fine.

    This is what I get when I paste his code

    Code:
    C:\Users\Brent\Desktop\Untitled1.c||In function `main':|
    C:\Users\Brent\Desktop\Untitled1.c|9|error: syntax error before ';' token|
    C:\Users\Brent\Desktop\Untitled1.c|18|error: syntax error before "return"|
    ||=== Build finished: 2 errors, 0 warnings ===|

    Hey an error list! We like those, since at least we can follow along here (instead of "there are errors somewhere").

    I'm blushing, since I was trusting Adak to have compiled his own code :oops: There is an extra semicolon on line 9, right before the right parenthesis.

    Ahh, I should have caught that.

    Now it works.

    How would I go about making it print out each lines average?

    10 11 12 13 14 15 12.50

    Make another if statement?

    Where the printing-of-the-new-line happens, you need to print the average at the same point (but just before the printing-of-the-new-line).

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    int main(void)
    {
    
        int i, j, sum;
        sum = 0;
    
        for(i = 10, j = 0; i <= 33; i++, j++)
        {
            sum += i;
            printf("%3d", i);
    
        if(j == 5)
        {
            sum += j;
            printf("%3d\n", j);
            j = -1;
        }
        }
        return 0;
    }
    Not sure how to calculate an average.

    All I just did was add 5 where the average should be.
    10 11 12 13 14 15 5

    Then maybe you should look up the word "average".

    I'm not to fond with the way you are helping me. I know how to average and i know the averages of each line. Your talking to me like I am a complete idiot. All I doing is trying to get help.

    So if you know how to average, then do it. There's not anything here to help you with. (In case you were wondering, / divides things.)
