Mathematical and script logic can diverge, in this case 0 is a nil value and so is invalid.

If it's divisible by 2, then it's even; if otherwise, it's odd.

Well, 3 is divisible by 2, it equals 1.5 (If you want a more accurate rule, if it's divisible by 2 and equals a whole number, it's even).

don't be a smart ass. 3 is not divisible by 2, there's a remainder that equals 1

It is considered an even integer because you can divide it into fractions of itself

Decimals aren't proper numbers, 1 dollar and 50 cents is half.

A placeholder (the group containing nothing). Mathematics is strictly conceptual.

No. It is neither even or odd as it is a symbol meant to represent the concept of nothing.

It's like asking if flipping a light switch will turn on a lightbulb that isn't even out of its box yet.

But 50 Cents are one half dollar.

No, 50 cents is representative of half a dollar, because a half is not a proper number.

Zero does not have the properties odd numbers have, but does have the properties even numbers have. It really isn't complicated.

No, 50 cents is representative of half a dollar, because a half is not a proper number.


Also, the number '50' is 'five tens and no ones'. Hence '5' and '0'.

It's a coin meant to make dealing in denominations below $1.00 easier. Personally I feel that they get seriously under-utilized and are amazingly useful, but I'm just one man.

Yeah depending on who you talk to (like some of my old math professors), they'll insist that 0 is a concept and not an actual number.

It both is and isn't until you decide what you actually want to do with it.

It comes right between 1 and -1 for integers. It follows a number of ways you can use to determine whether it is even or not.

Thoughts as to it NOT being even are just those that stem from the fact that "Zero" is a bit of a special number/concept.

So you can pretty much consider it the Shrodinger's Cat of numbers when talking about whether it is even or not.

Even numbers are whole integer multiples of 2.
0x2=0
0=0/2

Therefor, 0 is even.
