Thread: Nested For loops

Okay, so I am a novice programmer, and I'm encountering my first inexplicable issue. I have a pair of nested for loops, meant to check for prime numbers. It is as follows.

Code:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;


int main ()
{
    int test;
    for (short int f=0; f <= 100; f++)
    {
        for (short int y=0; y <=100; y++)
        {
            test = f%y;
            if (test != 0)
            continue;
            else
            cout<< test;
        }
    }
}

It compiles fine, then crashes when I try to run it. I'm beyond this level, so I'm just frustrated as hell that some tweak is giving me all this trouble.
