Explanation of the Even-Odd Checking Program
This C program checks whether a number entered by the user is even or odd. The program uses the modulus operator (%) to find the remainder when the number is divided by 2.
If the remainder is 0, the number is even. Otherwise, the number is odd. This is determined using a simple if–else statement.
What the Program Does
- Asks the user to enter any integer number.
- Calculates the remainder using num % 2.
- If remainder is 0, prints "The number is even".
- If remainder is 1, prints "The number is odd".
- Uses clrscr() to clear the screen (Turbo C function).
- Uses getch() to pause the output window.
Example Input -1
Enter a number: 14
Example Output -1
The number is even
Example Input -2
Enter a number: 15
Example Output -2
The number is odd
Summary:
This program determines whether a number is even or odd by checking the remainder when divided by 2.
It demonstrates the use of conditional statements, arithmetic operators, and basic input/output operations in C programming.
