    Is 0 even?

    Is 0 an even number? Yes. An even number leaves no remainder when divided by 2. So, 0/2 = 0 and has no remainder. Also, an integer 'n' is called "even" if there exists an integer 'm' such that n=2m, and n is called "odd" if n+1 is even. Thus, 0 is even by this criterion as well. Kool huh.
