    Has anyone got an even or odd number calculating program?

    If so, I would like to see the code.

    It's as simple as this:
    Code:
    if ( number % 2 )
      cout<<"Even"<<endl;
    else
      cout<<"Odd"<<endl;
    -Prelude
    My best code is written with the delete key.

    what do you mean "even or odd calculating program"?
    One that gives you a number and tells you if its even or odd?
    or one that only gives u even or odd random numbers?

    >if ( number % 2 )
    does the % sign mean "Can be divided by"?
    (i am a bit newbie to C++ )

    % tells you the remainder of a division operation. So if you divide by two and there's nothing left over then the number is even. You can perform the same calculation with the bitwise AND, but I won't get into that

    -Prelude

    Look up the modulus (%) operator.
