Display even(odd) number only

Mohamed Refky

Hello,
How to determine that a number is odd number or even number?

Thank You

Paul Baker

IF X//2 == 1
'number is odd
ELSE
'number is even
ENDIF

you can also do it by testing bit 0 of the value, it its a 0 its even if its a 1 its odd, this method is actually·quicker than using modulo in the first method.

Here's how to implement Paul's BIT0 suggestion:

· IF (myValue.BIT0 = 1) THEN
··· ' number is odd
· ELSE
··· ' number is even
· ENDIF

Thanks Jon, I see my work with the propeller is starting to crowd out PBASICs syntax, as my above IF-THEN example has some syntax errors.
