My attempt at FizzBuzz in Nim.

Today I came across this FizzBuzz attempt for Nim, so I thought of giving it a try too.

Here’s how Fizz buzz is defined on Wikipedia:

Fizz buzz is a group word game for children to teach them about division. Players take turns to count incrementally, replacing any number divisible by three with the word “fizz”, and any number divisible by five with the word “buzz”.

And it’s also one of those basic programming problems (labeled as interview questions) that’s written in many languages. Here’s how Rosetta Code defines this programming task —

Write a program that prints the integers from 1 to 100 (inclusive).

But:

for multiples of three, print Fizz (instead of the number)

for multiples of five, print Buzz (instead of the number)

for multiples of both three and five, print FizzBuzz (instead of the number)

I am not doing anything radical in this post.. just recording my attempt at FizzBuzz using Nim 😄.

for i in 1 .. 100:
 var str = $i
 if (i mod 3) == 0:
 str = "Fizz"
 if (i mod 5) == 0:
 str.add("Buzz")
 elif (i mod 5) == 0:
 str = "Buzz"
 echo str

See the output
