How is it possible that the following program works correctly: printlevel:=2: for n from 1 to 10 do if (0=0 mod 5) then 0; end if; end do; It correctly outputs ten 0's. But, when I change 0 to n inside the if conditional printlevel:=2: for n from 1 to 10 do if (n=0 mod 5) then 0; end if; end do; I get nothing for output. I should get two 0's. n is 0 mod 5 exactly twice as n runs from 1 through 10. I have experimented with adding spaces and deleting spaces between keywords and parentheses and numerical values to test if that was the problem. Nothing works.
