Problem 26. Determine if input is odd

Added several more tests to limit hard-coded answers.

When they say return "true" they mean "1", and "false" means "0". Newbie mistake.

Add a couple of negative values to the test.

Test for a couple of negative values

Delete comment doesn't work!

I don't know what I am doing wrong. I tried it in Matlab and seems to work fine

y = rem(x,2);
if y == 1
disp('true')
else
disp('false')
end

it should be clearly specified that we should not type in the string true but if we give true to a variable then it takes it as 1

All solutions with score 10 use the regexp cheat.

I don't understand why my code isn't working?
if mod(n,2) == 1
tf = 'true'
else
tf = 'false'
end

function tf = is_odd(n)

if rem(n,2)== 0
tf = 'false'
else
tf = 'true'
end
end
why is this not working?

I bet all the solutions not using if else are all from engineering backgrounds with intimate knowledge of boolean logic

ipek: you only need one end.

Nolan: you aren't using the variables provided

Good Problem

Pretty Easy. Thanks!

Good use of the modulo operator. Took some quick presence of mind to realise how to use it, but it is definitely quick to crack.

Advice: Don't overthink it!

Thank you!

Nice and simple. Thanks for the points :)

Thank you!

Solution stats show around 2/3rd of the attempts were wrong. Shows improtance of reading the problem well.

This is my first programming problem that I have written in c language.

Nice!

This was nice
