Problem:
take a number $num

$num = 32;

now continually divide $num / 2 until it reaches 1... ONLY return even values (no 5's for instance).. and DONT return duplicate entries

Anyone have a clue on how to do this?

^.^ I've tried several variations on the for loop and I still cant get it

hmm...what would you do with something like that....oh well...try something like this

PHP Code:

while( $num != 1) {

  $remainder = $num % 2;

  if ($remainder == 1)

    $num /= 2;

  else {

    $num /= 2;

    echo $num;

  }

} 

Hope this is what you wanted....Jose

Thanks that helps a bunch

Its for inserting some fake data into a table until it can be updated... it just needs to be in even increments
