Challenge 4

Write a program that prints the numbers from 1 to 100.

For multiples of three print “word_one” instead of the number.

For the multiples of five print “word_two” instead of the number.

For numbers which are multiples of both three and five print “word_one_word_two” instead of the number.

Kalisa:

• call your program ticktock.rb
• use tick for word_one
• use tock for word_two
• use ticktock for word_one_word_two

Kathy:

• call your program flipflop.rb
• use flip for word_one
• use flop for word_two
• use flipflop for word_one_word_two

Laura:

• call your program hobknob.rb
• use hob for word_one
• use knob for word_two
• use hobknob for word_one_word_two

When my program named wowiezowie.rb runs it looks like this:

That was fun. Interestingly all four of us had slightly different syntax even though we all wrote it in ruby. Originally I had had a case using mod 15 but then realized the tick and tock would just appear as ticktock if the number was divisible by 15 and made my program more streamlined. Thanks for the example problem Jen!
