console application help

[KatieHo]

Hi everyone! I am new here and I am new in C# (started to learn it his year at Uni). I hope you won't mind to help me with my homework. I got the console application to do. the task says
"Write a program to output the numbers 1 to 20 inclusive, excluding the numbers 5 and 18". I did it, but it shows all the numbers starting from 1 till 20, and I can't think how to make it right. Please help! Thank you!

So, we don't usually do homework for people here, but it seems to me that you would simply check for the numbers '5' and '18' and not print them...

hi thanx for reply. All i need just a hint how to do it as i stuck. the program should output (as i understand it) numbers in a row 1-till 20 excluding 5 and 18.

ok, so...


for ( int i = 1; i < 21; ++i )
{
if ( i != 5 && i != 18 )
{
Console.WriteLine( i );
}
}

It's ok, you don't have to find another forum. We are glad to help students with their homework, we just prefer not to hand them an answer. Next time, just post some code which shows what you have already tried, tell us what the problem is, and we will help you think through it.

But you did just hand them the answer ;) As this is the first month of learning how to program, they really should be checking their notes for this kind of stuff. It's far too early to start getting handed the answers online, they might get lazy! ;)

hehe I promise i won't ask for answers anymore and I will work hard :D
