| This is a very
popular type of function on other programming
sites and here is our php version of
this . All this does is simply display
a message whether a value is odd or
even .
Here is the script in full
<?php
/*
This function takes a whole number
($intnumber)
and then displays a message depending
on whether
it is odd or even
*/
function OddOrEven($intNumber)
{
if ($intNumber % 2 == 0 )
{
//your number is even
echo "Your number is even<br>";
}
else
{
//your number is odd
echo "Your number is odd<br>";
}
}
//test the function with 2 values
40 and 3
OddOrEven(40);
OddOrEven(3);
?>
A note here for people coming from
other languages , in particular Visual
Basic or VBscript . The modulus operator
is % and not MOD . If you program
in more than one language this will
catch you out from time to time.
