static void FizzBuzz(int number) | |

// 3 MOD 3 = 0. We actually want 1 for multiples of 3. | |
// So we store an incremented number so that we get 1 | |
// for the binary operations. This applies to 5 as | |
// well. | |
// Valid numbers for X MOD 3 are { 0, 1, 2 }. Therefore | |
// we can simply AND it with 1. As such: | |
// { 0, 1, 2 } AND 1 = | |
// { 0, 1, 0 } | |
// Valid numbers for X MOD 5 are { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 }. If we | |
// simply AND it with 1 we will get a false positive on 3. | |
// To avoid that we use MOD 3 to 'make' the 3 case 0. | |
// Unfortunately that will make the 4 case 1 as the | |
// sequence is now { 0, 1, 2, 0, 1 }. To avoid that we | |
// MOD it with 4 first. Finally we shift it left one bit | |
// to multiply it by 2. As such: | |
// { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 } MOD 4 = | |
// { 0, 1, 2, 3, 0 } MOD 3 = | |
// { 0, 1, 2, 0, 0 } AND 1 = | |
// { 0, 1, 0, 0, 0 } SHL 1 = | |
// { 0, 2, 0, 0, 0 } | |
