1title: The FizzBuzz Program 2date: 2022 Feb 20 3updated: 2024 Feb 2 4 5A 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. 6 7First let me tell you why I write these programs. These programs, at least in my opinion, are good when you're learning a new programming language. It gives you a problem to solve, and all you need to do to solve it. Incase you're wondering, the problem is to make a program that counts from 1 to 100 and replaces all multiples of 3 with Fizz, all multiples of 5 with Buzz, and multiples of both with FizzBuzz. Generally in interviews, they also ask you to add on more multiples, such as multiples of 7 are replaced with Fuzz, and multiples of 11 are replaced with Bizz. 8 9Now that I've told you what a FizzBuzz Program is, let me show you how I make them in Python. 10 11```python 12for Index in range(1, 100): 13Response = "" 14print(Response) 15``` 16 17The first thing I do is I create a for loop, and within it I put a print statement and a variable named toPrint. 18 19```python 20def FizzCompute(Number, Divisor, String): 21return String if Number % Divisor == 0 else "" 22 23def SubstituteEmpty(String, Number): 24return String if String != "" else Number 25 26for Index in range(1, 100): 27Response = SubstituteEmpty(FizzCompute(Index, 3, "Fizz") + FizzCompute(Index, 5, "Buzz"), Index) 28print(Response) 29``` 30<details> 31<summary>Output</summary> 32<samp>1 332 34Fizz 354 36Buzz 37Fizz 387 398 40Fizz 41Buzz 4211 43Fizz 4413 4514 46FizzBuzz 4716 4817 49Fizz 5019 51Buzz 52Fizz 5322 5423 55Fizz 56Buzz 5726 58Fizz 5928 6029 61FizzBuzz 6231 6332 64Fizz 6534 66Buzz 67Fizz 6837 6938 70Fizz 71Buzz 7241 73Fizz 7443 7544 76FizzBuzz 7746 7847 79Fizz 8049 81Buzz 82Fizz 8352 8453 85Fizz 86Buzz 8756 88Fizz 8958 9059 91FizzBuzz 9261 9362 94Fizz 9564 96Buzz 97Fizz 9867 9968 100Fizz 101Buzz 10271 103Fizz 10473 10574 106FizzBuzz 10776 10877 109Fizz 11079 111Buzz 112Fizz 11382 11483 115Fizz 116Buzz 11786 118Fizz 11988 12089 121FizzBuzz 12291 12392 124Fizz 12594 126Buzz 127Fizz 12897 12998 130Fizz</samp> 131</details> 132 133The 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. 134 135Then I make a function that checks if a string is an empty one, if it is, then it returns a number. 136 137Once I have these 2 functions, I go back into the for loop and make the `Response` 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. 138 139I've tried this method many times. Below are some examples of this method in action! 140 141* [Kotlin](https://replit.com/@StevesGreatness/FizzBuzzKotlin) 142* [Lua](https://replit.com/@StevesGreatness/FizzBuzzlua) 143* [Python](https://replit.com/@StevesGreatness/FizzBuzzpython) 144* [Ruby](https://replit.com/@StevesGreatness/FizzBuzzRuby) 145
