For Loop Explanation Help!!! Please

Question

public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
int power=1000;
int X=2881;

int[]store=new int[4];

for(int i=0;i<4;i++) {
store[i]=X/power;
X=X-(X/power)*power;
power/=10;
}
for(int i=0; i<4;i++) {
System.out.println(store[3-i]);
}
}

}

I don’t understand
store[i]=X/power;
X=X-(X/power)*power;
power/=10;
And why is printing out 1882
Thank you

Answer 1

No X is not equal to 0
Here (2881/1000) will be solved first which gives answer as 2.
So the equation becomes X=2881-(2)*1000
=2881-2000
=881
So after 1st loop X=881

Hope this will help you😊

Answer 3

Joseph Jostar what exactly you are not understanting in the code?

Answer 4

Ulisses Cruz
thank you

i am confused with X=X-(X/p)*p
X=2881
so it will be
2881-(2881/1000)*1000

so X= 0 ?

i know p=1000
and it will each time ivide 10 for 4 times it will be 1000,100,10,1
