gollark: Oops.
gollark: ```pythonfor fizzbuzz in range(51): if fizzbuzz % 3 == 0 and fizzbuzz % 5 == 0: print("fizzbuzz") elif fizzbuzz % 3 == 0: print("fizz") elif fizzbuzz % 5 == 0: print("buzz") print(fizzbuzz)```
gollark: And it gets shorter, yes.
gollark: Yours prints `[number] [maybe fizz and/or buzz]`, the python version does *not* and it's shorter if it is allowed to
gollark: Also, it does not seem to be doing the same thing as the python version.
