c# - Writing FizzBuzz

Question

Reading the coding horror, I just came across the FizzBuzz another time.

The original post is here: Coding Horror: Why Can't Programmers.. Program?

For those who do not know: FizzBuzz is a quite popular children's game. Counting from 1 to 100, and every time a number is divisible by 3 the string "Fizz" is called, every time a number is divisible by 5 the string "Buzz" is called and every time a number is divisible by 3 and 5 both strings together "FizzBuzz" are called instead of the number.

This time, I wrote the code and it took me a minute, but there are several things that I do not like.

Here is my code:

public void DoFizzBuzz()
{
    var combinations = new Tuple<int, string>[] 
    { 
        new Tuple<int, string> (3, "Fizz"), 
        new Tuple<int, string> (5, "Buzz"), 
    };

    for (int i = 1; i <= 100; ++i)
    {
        bool found = false;

        foreach (var comb in combinations)
        {
            if (i % comb.Item1 == 0)
            {
                found = true;
                Console.Write(comb.Item2);
            }
        }

        if (!found)
        {
            Console.Write(i);
        }

        Console.Write(Environment.NewLine);
    }
}

So my questions are:

1. How do I get rid of the bool found?
2. Is there a better way of testing than the foreach?

Answer 1

I think your implementation is unnecessarily complex. This one does the job and is easier to understand:

public void DoFizzBuzz()
{
    for (int i = 1; i <= 100; i++)
    {
        bool fizz = i % 3 == 0;
        bool buzz = i % 5 == 0;
        if (fizz && buzz)
            Console.WriteLine ("FizzBuzz");
        else if (fizz)
            Console.WriteLine ("Fizz");
        else if (buzz)
            Console.WriteLine ("Buzz");
        else
            Console.WriteLine (i);
    }
}
