The basic idea is to print out the integers from 1-100, if the number is evenly divisible by 3 also print "Fizz", if it's evenly divisible by 5, also print "Buzz" and if it's evenly divisible by 15, print "FizzBuzz".
There are a ton of possible implementations, most of them painfully obvious and straightforward, so here's the challenge. 1) What's the shortest program that you can write to solve the problem and 2) what's the "fastest" (in terms of fewest number of operations, no sane solution should take more than a few milliseconds to execute and very nearly all of that is I/O).
My shortest in terms of lines of code was 5 lines of code (not counting curly-brace only lines), with 300 conditionals, 100 increments and 200 modulus operations. Fewest instructions had 6 conditionals (could have been none, but that would've cost an extra 75 lines of code) and 100 increments (no other operations), but at a cost of 27 lines of code.
