    I rode into cprogramming.com on a thread with no name

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    int main()
    {
        int a;
        a=0
        do
        {
              a++;
              printf("%d  ",a);
              _sleep(100);
              
        }while(a!=101);
        system("pause");
        return 0;
    }
    im supposed to let the user input a number(lets say b) and make the numbers from 0 to 100 that is divisible by 'b' to erase it and changed to "___".For example the user inputs 5,so i have to make 5 into '_*_' and the numbers from 0 to 100 that can be divided by 5 into "___".

    001 002 003 004 _*_ 006 007 008 009 ___ 011 012 013 014 ___ 016

    Or if the user inputs 4 that means i hav to make 4 as _*_ and the numbers from 0 to 100 that can be divided by 4 into "___".

    001 002 003 _*_ 005 006 007 ___ 009 010

    can anybody tell me how to do this?I juz started on basic C programming so pardon my low intelligence.

    Thumbs up

    Code:
    int main()
    {
    int i,b;
    printf("Enter the Value for b:");
    scanf("%d",&b);
    for(i=1;i<=100;i++)
           {
    
    if(i==b) printf("_*_ "); elseif(i%b==0) printf("___ "); else printf ("%d",i);
    } }
    % operator gives you the reminder after divinding i by b. So all the multiples can be identified using this... For all other numbers its simply a plain printf().

    Arun.

    Wow.

    Seiten, try reading the Cboard homework policy. Most members of this board won't do your homework for you. Learn to ask questions instead of simply stating your problem. You should also read the Cboard Forum Guidelines. A meaningful subject will help you get better responses.

    If I did your homework for you, then you might pass your class without learning how to write a program like this. Then you might graduate and get your degree without learning how to write a program like this. You might become a professional programmer without knowing how to write a program like this. Someday you might work on a project with me without knowing how to write a program like this. Then I would have to do you serious bodily harm. - Jack Klein

    A real thread title is a good start
    If you understand what you're doing, you're not learning anything.

    guys i figured out hw to clear wif the _*_ but when it comes to the __ it will show the number that can b divisible.For example i input 8:
    001 002 003 004 005 006 007 _*_008 009 010 011 012 013 014 015 __016 017

    any hints or help will do..thks

    Amazing, some misguided soul posts a working solution to the assignment, and now someone can't even copy and paste it correctly.

    nonono..when i press 8 its supposes to change 008 into _*_ not 008_*_ and to blank 016 into "__" and not " ___016".

    I guess you didn't read properly, or even bother compiling the code the first reply gave you. It does what you couldn't. It does exactly what you said you wanted.

    You can't tell people to read better when you haven't even read the first reply.

    Code:
    a=0
    Well, the first thing you need is a semicolon at the end of this line.
