I can't figure this out

[silvia]

I Write an application that calculates the prduct of the odd integers from 1 to 15.
That is all it says...does it mean multiply all the odd numbers from 1 to 15? If so how do i do this....im not sure how to point out negative numbers.
Thanks

Are worried about multiplying negative odd numbers?

int can hold negative numbers at all.

calculates da products of odd numbers from 1-15?

products in da mathematical terms of multiplication u mean rite?
so i supposed u want to make it like this?

1x3x5x7x9x11x13x15 = ?

if u wanna get da odd number from 1 - 15, u could use da modulus operator %, a loop, and an if logical statement

da main method should look like this inside i think

Code:

    int x = 1;
    for(int i=1;i<=15;i++)
    {
        if((i%2)==1)//meaning that its an odd number
        {
            x = i*x;//or u could just write it x*=i to make it short, but its not really a good idea if ur still stufying, itll give u some hard time reading n doin ur logic
        }
    }

btw, just in case it didn't work, make sure u put da code inside da main method k, i already tested da code n it run out just fine

logic comes first, coding comes later
hope this helps sylvia
