Do you know how to add those numbers *without* skipping those two numbers?
Please show us some code because we're not doing it for you.

kind regards,

// adds the numbers between 1 and 1000 excluding 300 and 500
//

int=sum;
sum=1;




this is as far as i can get i know i need a if and a while statement I know i need the while statement within my loop { }

have you read up on counters (++), arithmetic operators and expressions?
and if or else statements

If that's as far as you can get, that's nowhere. You need to read your textbook or take some basic tutorials:

A forum isn't the right place to get help you you can't even crawl.

I'm Just Learning Java I Know A Few Things Like You Need ; After Certain Things Also For This Program Ill Be Using A If, And A While Statement Within My Loop , I Just Dont Know How To Get It Going

[robert scherer]

int sum = 0;
if (int i = 1; i <= 1000; ++i) {
sum += i;
while( )

}




is this better

Then you should go carefully through the tutorial. There are examples of all that.

[JosAH]

int sum = 0;
if (int i = 1; i <= 1000; ++i) {
sum += i;
while( )

}

Not really no; I think you're just guessing what your program should be without
knowing exactly what to do. Who gave you the idea to put that (incorrect) if-
statement there? An if statement takes a boolean value/expression and if it's
true the body of the if-statement will be executed. You actually put in an entire
for-clause in there. Try again and look up what for-loops can do. btw, I have no
idea what that while( ) thing does in there ;-)

ok my friends is this closer to what i need for this program


//Sums all the numbers from 1 to 1000
//But excludes the numbers 300 and 500
//

public class Robert1
{
public static void main(String[]ARGS)
{
int sum;
int i;
for(i=1;sum=0;i <1000;i++)
if(300=500+i;)
}
}
is this right yet thanks
