A FizzBuzz Program is a program used in many job interviews to see if a programmer is good at problem solving. There are many ways to make one.

Now that I've told you what a FizzBuzz Program is, let me show you how I make them in Python.
```python
for i in range(1, 100):
toPrint = ""
print(toPrint)
for Index in range(1, 100):
Response = ""
print(Response)
```
The first thing I do is I create a for loop, and within it I put a print statement and a variable named toPrint.
```python
def check(checktomulti, multi, toreturn):
if checktomulti % multi == 0:
return toreturn
return ""
def checkEmpty(string, number):
if string == "":
return number
return string
def FizzCompute(Number, Divisor, String):
return String if Number % Divisor == 0 else ""
def SubstituteEmpty(String, Number):
return String if String != "" else Number
for i in range(1, 100):
toPrint = checkEmpty(check(i, 3, "Fizz") + check(i, 5, "Buzz"), i)
print(toPrint)
for Index in range(1, 100):
Response = SubstituteEmpty(FizzCompute(Index, 3, "Fizz") + FizzCompute(Index, 5, "Buzz"), Index)
print(Response)

The next thing I do is I define a function that checks if one number is a multiple of another, and if it is, then it returns the string, otherwise, it returns an empty string.
Then I make a function that checks if a string is an empty one, if it is, then it returns a number.
Once I have these 2 functions, I go back into the for loop and make the `toPrint` variable have the variable for checking if a string is empty(and if it is replace it with a number) check if 2 of the other function that check if one number is a multiple of another(and if it is, return a string). Finally, it prints the output.

I've tried this method many times. Below are some examples of this method in action!
