Ok so I made this program that would filter out the dates that weren't evenly divisble by 15, so I used:

if(year % 15 == 0){}

but it didn't filter them out. Is there something wrong, or is this just the wrong thing to use?

maybe you want the day, and not the year?? If the dates are all in 2005, none will fit. I think 2010 is the next year evenly divisible by 15

, and the last one was 1995.

Just a wild guess. How does the rest of the code in the if-block look?

No i want the year, it goes from 1628 to 2005 (every year in between too).

This is the rest of the if statement:
if((year % 15 == 0) || (year % 100 == 0) || (year == 2005)){ System.out.println(); }

(Toggle Plain Text)

class year{
	public static void main(String [] args){
		
		for(int i = 0 ; i <= 2005 ; i++)
			if((i%15 == 0) || (i%100 == 0) || (i == 2005) ){
				System.out.println(i);
			}
	}
}

This works , so there has to be something else wrong with your code.

OK it works, I found that I was incrementing it twice, and there wasn't anything wrong with the if statement. Thanks for the help though.
