Catching iterations using php modulus in an irregular sequence

Question

How can I write a modulus that will select the following iterations in sequence?

1, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, 13 etc (+3+1r)

I'm working within a loop and counting posts (iterations).

So for example, I could catch every third post (1, 4, 7, 10) by:-

if ($i % 3 == 1) { echo 'something here'; } 

But how can I write one that will catch 1, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, 13?

I'm not quite sure about your algorithm, but it seems like you try to get every 3rd and 4th post not (starting at 0). The fitting code would be:

if(($i % 4 == 0 || $i % 4 == 1) && $i != 0) { /* do stuff */ }
