What if we actually use random numbers, as the video asks for?

In the video, Pasan sets up the question saying, "given a random number," so my solution uses a random number, not the range 1 to 100.

Does the following answer the challenge, for random numbers up to 150?

var randomNum = Int (arc4random_uniform(UInt32(150)))

switch 0 {
case randomNum: print(0)
case randomNum % 3 + randomNum % 5: print("FizzBuzz")
case randomNum % 5: print("Buzz")
case randomNum % 3: print("Fizz")
default: print(randomNum)
}

Good work! It will work also.

You will be generating random numbers every time you compile your code. Just a observation as well,I am putting a cleaner code right here:

var randomNum = Int (arc4random_uniform(UInt32(150)))
switch 0 {
    case randomNum:
        print(0)

    case randomNum % 3 + randomNum % 5:
        print("FizzBuzz")

    case randomNum % 5:
        print("Buzz")

    case randomNum % 3: print("Fizz")

    default:
        print(randomNum)
}

What did you do to get your code to show up in that black background?

It's called "Markdown Cheatsheet". If you want to write a code in this text filed (the box for answer or reply text), you put ()Swift print("Hello") ()

I've parenthesis around the three symbols because it will activate the markdown cheatsheet, but if you want to activate this black background, just need to take them off.

Hello, this challenge is a bit confusing. I think by random number he means passing any number that comes to the user's mind when calling the function and there is no need for for loop there.

Your approach looks a creative one. Here is my solution:

var rand = Int (arc4random_uniform(UInt32(150)))

switch (rand % 3 , rand % 5) {
case (0,0) : print("fizzBuzz \(rand)")
case (0, _): print("Fiz \(rand)")
case (_ , 0): print("Buzz \(rand)")
default : print(rand)
