Java Computer Eclipse Program: Recall that you can tell if a number is divisible

Question

Java Computer Eclipse Program:

Recall that you can tell if a number is divisible by another by using the modulus operator (%) which gives you the remainder from division. If the result is zero (there is no remainder) then the first number is divisible by the second. For your number game, we will count from 1 to 30 using the following rules: 1. If a number is divisible by 5, then print "beep" instead of the number 2. If a number is divisible by 8, then print "buzz" instead of the number 3. If a number is divisible by 12, then print "zap" instead of the number Remember: if the number is divisible by both numbers, both words should print on the same line.

public class NumberGame {

   /**

   */
   public static void main(String[] args) {

       for (int i = 1; i <= 30; i++) {

           System.out.print(i + ". ");
           // 1. If a number is divisible by 5, then print "beep" instead of
           // the number
           if (i % 5 == 0)
               System.out.print(" beep ");
           // 2. If a number is divisible by 8, then print "buzz" instead of
           // the number
           if (i % 8 == 0)
               System.out.print(" buzz ");
           // 3. If a number is divisible by 12, then print "zap" instead of
           // the number
           if (i % 12 == 0)
               System.out.print(" zap ");
           System.out.println();
       }
   }
}
