Help with a loop, print 1-20 to the screen but skips 15, 16, and 17

[JDK721]

I need help with writing a loop that prints 1-20 to the screen but skips 15, 16, and 17.

I know how to write a for loop that prints any number range, such as 5-200 1-20 etc. But I don't know how to make it skip specific numbers. Please help.

Thanks.

Try an 'if'-statement and the 'continue' statement ... :)

Hmm, i'll try to figure it out.

This is supposed to be a loop. I didnt think an 'if' statement was a loop, for printing 1-20 I used a for loop.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void printNum()//print 1-20 to the screen but skips 15, 16, and 17
{
int x;
for(x=1;x<=20;x++)
{
if( (x ==15) || (x==16) || (x==17))
continue;

cout <<x<<" ";
}

return;
}
int main()
{
printNum();


system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}

I got it, it was easier than I thought! This is what I wrote, and it worked.

#include <iostream.h>

int main ()
{
int n;

for (n=1; n<21; n++)
{
if (n==15) continue;
if (n==16) continue;
if (n==17) continue;
cout << n << "\n";
}
return 0;
}
