How do you tell if a number is even or odd..

[CS Schmidt]

is there some function out there somewhere to tell if a number is even or
odd in VB?

Just use the Mod operator.

If n Mod 2 Then
Debug.Print "n is odd"
Else
Debug.Print "n is even"
End If

well....
you could use:


Dim x as Integer
Dim Even as Boolean

if x Mod 2 = 0 then Even = True else Even = false

Odd = CBool(n mod 2)
Even = Not Odd

Just to be different <g>

If your Number is in string form (say, from a TextBox), a String variable or
a Variant variable, then

Even = Number Like "*[02468]"

Odd = Number Like "*[13579]"

So like maybe it could be yet more efficient, like oh,
say, placing those values in a resource file? Oh, yeah!

and another variation:

odd=cbool(n and 1)
