' Since this is a console app, need to use the Console Module
' The string and other features used are part of the core module
' so no need to use any other Uses modules
Uses "Console"

' Uncomment the next line if you want to run in fullscreen mode
'Console_FullScreen()

' We can use Aliases in thinBasic
' now Input can be used as Console_Read
Alias Console_Read As Input

' The long type was not big enough, so I used quad
Dim i, n, x As Quad

Print("Please enter the upper bound: ")
i = Val(Input())

For n = 1 To i
x = 3*n^3
If InStr(Str$(x),"333") Then PrintL( n + " " + x )
Next

Print("Finished - press any key to exit")
