    What have you tried so far? Post your code and it'll be easier to see where you're going wrong.

    for ( var i=99; i<=101; i++ ) 

if (i%2 == 0)
{
print("Even!")  
}
else
{
print("Odd!")
}

    Have you tried the hint button which talks about the modulus (%) operator? I presume you understand how if/else selection works? Here's two things to think about: If the result of (i % 2) is 0, what does that tell you about i? How do you perform an equality test inside an if statement?

    hey guys thanks for the really quick responses! Axwell, your answer worked like a charm! what i had was

    for ( var i=99; i<=101; i++ ) {
    if (i%2=0, console.log("Even!))
    else console.log("Odd!")

    as they say, close but no cigar!..ah well..my curly bracket things were all over the place, i dont think i even had any! i also forgot that you have to have like 3 equals signs...

    Anyways cheers for ye're help lads!
