Hello to all.

I have this code for my class and I what I am trying to do is decrement the number 39 by two so that odd numbers show, until I get to zero using the "for loop" The issue is that I am suppose to exclude the numbers 33, and 3 when it prints the numbers out. I can't figure that part out, and I can't find it anywhere in the chapter that I had to read on this. Can someone please help me understand how i should do this? This is the code I have so far, but I took out the extra for statements for clarity, beacuse I thought they would help me but they don't.

If I am suppose to use if statements, I don't know how to do this excluding 3 and 33.

 Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
import java.util.*;
 
public class loop
{
 
public static void main (String[] args)
{
 
int i;
 
for (i = 39; i >= 0; i = i - 2)
 
	System.out.print(i + " ");
 
System.out.println();
}
}
import java.util.*;

public class loop
{

public static void main (String[] args)
{

int i;

for (i = 39; i >= 0; i = i - 2)

	System.out.print(i + " ");

System.out.println();
}
}
