Any help would be very much appreciated our instuctor has asked us to provide the following but never given any assitance nor taught the syntax or commands:
if this was python i understand the psuedo code should read something like "for x in line print hello
and so on ,

1)Write a batch file that iterates through a variable from 1 to 100 in steps of 5. For values of 1 – 50, the script should print “Hello”. For values between 51 and 100, the script should print “World.”

In as few lines as possible, write a batch file to create 20 users on your Win2k8 server using the net command

Well I don't think posting twice will help you any quicker. What does your teacher get paid to do?

Open up a command prompt and type: for /?
You can do the same thing with the net command to see the syntax. Can probably do the same with Google.

Here's some further help.

Use the FOR /L command to give you the numbers, range and the step size.

and use IF a variable is less than a number then do something
IF a variable is greater than a number then do something


You will need to research the commands to put that together so you'll at least learn something.

This is untested

NUMBERS:
@echo off
title YOURNAME's ASSIGNMENT NAME

set t=0
:jhji
set /a t+=1
echo Number: %t%
if %t%==50 echo Hello
if %t%==100 echo World
@ping 127.0.0.1 -n 1 -w 1 >nulc
goto jhji

Read the requirements more closely, BallisticX

There is a reason we directed him to use a FOR loop. More efficient. Nor does your solution solve either of his problems.
