Solution for the second problem:
using System;
namespace LoopsReview
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Declaring an array which hold numbers
int[] numbers = { 10, 5, 12, 3421, 904, 84 };
//Calling every numbers of the array via loop
for (int i = 0; i < numbers.Length; i++)
{
//Checking if it's odd or not
if (numbers[i] % 2 == 0)
Console.WriteLine($"{numbers[i]} is an even number.");
else
Console.WriteLine($"{numbers[i]} is an odd number.");
}
}
}
}
Second problem:
int[] numbers = new int[] {1,2,3,4,76,35,34,53,5,34,87,75,665};
foreach(int number in numbers)
{
if(number % 2 == 0)
{
Console.WriteLine($"{number} is even");
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine($"{number} is odd");
}
}
Here’s my attempt. I decided to also list the factors for each number and through that, work out if the number is a prime.
for (int i = 1; i <= 50; ++i)
{
Console.WriteLine(i % 2 == 0 ? $"{i}: even": $"{i}: odd") ;
// List factors or mark as prime
string factors = "";
for (int j = 1; j<i/2+1; ++j)
{
if (i % j == 0)
{
factors = factors + $" {j}";
}
}
if (i < 4) { factors = " 1"; };
Console.WriteLine(factors == " 1" ? $"{i} is a prime number! \n": $"The factors of {i} are{factors}\n");
Second challenge. I confess that if I hadn’t peaked here and seen the split function, I’d have been stuck. With that, it was pretty straightforward. I made life difficult for myself as I wanted to get rid of the extra punctuation. This cost me the most time. I couldn’t find a Regex.Replace formula that would would go through the final string and take out the punctuation, but not the spaces. Any tips here appreciated. The formula I did use, I just found by googling, but it would be more efficient were it outside of the loop.
//String generated using "=rand(3)" in MS Word
string input = "Video provides a powerful way to help you prove your point. When you click Online Video, you can paste in ... (shortened here for space!)");
char wantedLetter = (char)Console.Read();
wantedLetter = char.ToLower(wantedLetter);
string output = "";
string[] indivWords = input.Split(' ');
foreach (string word in indivWords)
{
if (word.Substring(0, 1).ToLower() == char.ToString(wantedLetter))
{
string subword = Regex.Replace(word, "[^a-zA-Z0-9]+", "", RegexOptions.Compiled);
output = output + " " + subword;
}
}
Console.WriteLine(output == "" ? $"Sorry, no words starting with {wantedLetter}" : output);
Why does this code run into an error:
using System;
namespace LoopsReview
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
/* use this space to write your own short program!
Here's what you learned:
while loop: while(){..}
do...while loop: do{...}while();
for loop: for(int i=0; i<x; i++){}
foreach loop: foreach(int item in list){}
jump statements: break, continue, return
Good luck! */
foreach (int item in int[] items = {1, 2, 3})
{
Console.WriteLine(item);
}
}
}
}
?
So. I have been making the code for a first quizz (where it prints out only words starting with a). If someone needs it, here’s what I got:
using System;
namespace LoopsReview
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string text = "Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.";
string[] textArray = text.Split(' ');
foreach (string word in textArray) {
if (word[0] == 'a' || word[0] == 'A') {
Console.WriteLine(word);
}
}
}
}
}
The output is going to be:
- and
- an
- a
- and
- a
- also
- and
- Aldus
It’s a pretty simple code. Not sure if that’s the best option but I hope this will help someone 
(Here is an explanation of how the code works) ==>
Make a variable that contains the text. ( string text = [something] )
Make a variable that sorts every single word in the text as an array. ( string textArray = text.Split(’ '); )
Make a loop that checks every single word in our array text. ( foreach (string word in textArray) {} )
And finally make an if statement inside of the loop, that checks if the word starts with a or A. ( (word[0] == ‘a’ || word[0] == ‘A’) )
