Dim ctr As Integer
Dim i As String

For ctr = 1 To 10
    If ctr Mod 2! = 0 Then
    Print ctr
    End If
Next

Well this is simple how to print an asterisk base on the answer of the if statement. the if statement will output all the even numbers base on the for loop

When i use the "print ctr" in the if statement the output would be 2,4,6,8,10 but instead of those even numbers the output must be an astersik but base on the number of the even numbers liek [ 2 ** , 4 ****, 6 ******, 8 ******** ]

Hm, try this...

Dim ctr As Integer
Dim i As String

For ctr = 1 To 10
    If ctr Mod 2! = 0 Then
    Print ctr & " " & String(ctr, "*")
    End If
Next

Well this is simple how to print an asterisk base on the answer of the if statement. the if statement will output all the even numbers base on the for loop

It's working but why did you use the

String(ctr, "*")

But how if im not using the VB style im using the php how to output a asterisk base on the even numbers

$ctr = 0;

for ($ctr = 1; $ctr < 10; $ctr++)
{
            if ($ctr %2 !==1)
            {
            echo "$ctr" & "*";
            }
}

How about that ?

That belongs in the PHP forum.

I know some PHP but not aware if PHP has a buil in function like VB's String$() function.

You could write your own:

<?php
  function asterisk($length) {
    for($i=1; $i < $length; $i++) {
      $ret.= '*';
    }
    return $ret;
  }
  
  for ($ctr = 1; $ctr < 10; $ctr++) {
    if ($ctr %2 !==1) {
      echo "$ctr " . asterick($ctr);
    }
  }
?>

No without using a function just simple as the way you interpret in VB. How simply output the asterisk base on the even numbers. I use the phpjust a sample i can use also the C++. Just to know ohter way to output the asterisk

PHP:
$ctr = 0;

for ($ctr = 1; $ctr < 10; $ctr++)
{
            if ($ctr %2 !==1)
            {
            echo "$ctr" & "*";
            }
}

C++:
int ctr;

for (ctr = 1; ctr < 10; ctr++)
{
         if (ctr %2 !==1)
         {
         cout <<"*";
         }
}

i just want to know the other way
