Enter your FizzBuzz solution here! You will have to make some minor changes to get this to work with our editor though.
Step 1: Copy-paste your code in between the comments shown below. Your solution is going inside a function I created. Don't worry about what it does, this just allows me to verify your solution.
Step 2: Change your variable/constant name that you are checking in each step to n. For example if (n % 3 == 0). You also don't need to define n. It is defined in the function provided.
Step 3: Change all your print statements to return statements. For example: print("FizzBuzz") becomes return "FizzBuzz".
While these are very specific directions, they allow me to verify your solution precisely over a large number of possible answers.
Note: Do not worry about the default case (where the number doesn't match Fizz, Buzz, or FizzBuzz). The code in the challenge editor already takes care of that by returning the number as a string using string interpolation.
The challenge also does not need you to loop over a range of values (using for or while). I'll take care of that.

Why would this not work? Is it not it the correct order? That would have to be my guess. Oh boy! its because the first two statements are true then there would be no need to make it too the 3rd IF statement.

if (n % 3 == 0) && (n % 5 == 0) { return ("FizzBuzz") }
else if (n % 3 == 0) { return ("Fizz") }
else if (n % 5 == 0) { return ("Buzz") }

return "Fizz"
}
else if (n % 5 == 0) {
return "Buzz"
}
}
// -> This is my code, but it does not function, What am I doing wrong? It tells me to double check Buzz values, but they seem alright.

2,031 Pointslooks like you just didnt finish the challenge. you need a return value to be "FizzBuzz" and I've learned it needed to be first.
if you need help just come back and I'll help.

Yes that has been written as you can see above, the program did not copied well all the code.
