How to find numbers that are divisible by a certain number for a range of values in R?

In R, the divisibility of a number by a certain number can be found by using the modulus operator %%. If we want to check the divisibility of a set of numbers by a certain number then for loop will be used.

Check out the below given examples to understand how it can be done.

Example 1

To check which numbers between 1 and 100 are divisible by 10, use the following code −

for(x in 1:100){
   + if(x%%10==0){
         + print(x)
   + }
+ }

If you execute the above given code, it generates the following output −

[1]  10
[1]  20
[1]  30
[1]  40
[1]  50
[1]  60
[1]  70
[1]  80
[1]  90
[1] 100

Example 2

To check which numbers between 1 and 1000 are divisible by 50, use the code given below −

for(x in 1:1000){
   + if(x%%50==0){
      + print(x)
   + }
+ }

If you execute the above given code, it generates the following output −

[1]   50
[1]  100
[1]  150
[1]  200
[1]  250
[1]  300
[1]  350
[1]  400
[1]  450
[1]  500
[1]  550
[1]  600
[1]  650
[1]  700
[1]  750
[1]  800
[1]  850
[1]  900
[1]  950
[1] 1000

Example 3

To check which numbers between 1 and 100 are divisible by 4, use the code given below −

for(x in 1:100){
   + if(x%%4==0){
      + print(x)
   + }
+ }

If you execute the above given code, it generates the following output −

[1]   4
[1]   8
[1]  12
[1]  16
[1]  20
[1]  24
[1]  28
[1]  32
[1]  36
[1]  40
[1]  44
[1]  48
[1]  52
[1]  56
[1]  60
[1]  64
[1]  68
[1]  72
[1]  76
[1]  80
[1]  84
[1]  88
[1]  92
[1]  96
[1] 100
