    Default BruceForce Method and Modulus HELP!

    I was wondering how to take the modulus of every number from 11 through 20 getting a successful run of modulus values of zero for a particular number using a while loop. Thank you.

    Yes this can be done (if I'm understanding you correctly). Why not give it a try and see what you get? Or if you've already done this, what is not working for you? What is wrong with your code?

    I just need help getting started sir. Im not that familiar with while loops. Like i know how to do it individually doing one by one. But a while loop is the way to go.
    int i = number;
     
     
     
        int j = 11;
     
     
     
        int k = i % j;
        System.out.println(number + "%" + j + " is " + k);

    Result:
    232792560%11 is 0

    If you can get it going on the right path. I have to finish this before i go to bed. So anything would help! thanks

    --- Update ---

    I have to prove that taking the modulus of 232792560 from numbers 11-20 results in getting a zero using a while loop.

    --- Update ---

    So far but its wrong:
     
     
        int start = 11;
        int end_value = 20;
     
     
        while (start <= end_value)
        	start++;
     
       System.out.println(number % start);


    Result:
     
    0

    I need help!
