[DFW.pm] Homework for the list, and for Oct 08 meeting

[Lisa Cloutier]

Solution below:


















my $x = 1;

while ($x <= 100)
{
    if (($x % 3 == 0) && ($x % 5 == 0))
  {
   print "FizzBuzz\n";
  }
  elsif ($x % 3 == 0)
  {
   print "Fizz\n";
  }
  elsif ($x % 5 == 0)
  {
   print "Buzz\n";
  }
  else
  {
   print "$x\n";
  }
  $x++;
}

I minorly "cheated" in that I didn't know the sign in Perl for "mod" but
had read Bob's email previously (before learning about the challenge) and
realized what he was doing with the % sign.   Had I been in an interview I
probably would have used every special character in turn until I figured
out the symbol for mod.

So I guess I can "program my way out of a wet paper bag" as this website
<http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?FizzBuzzTest> proclaimed about the FizzBuzz test.
