This code is terrible. If you input 10.66 it returns "number is odd

It should be:

if&nbsp;number&nbsp;%&nbsp;2&nbsp;==&nbsp;0
&nbsp;&nbsp;return&nbsp;"number&nbsp;is&nbsp;even"&nbsp;(is_num_even&nbsp;=&nbsp;1&nbsp;or&nbsp;true)
else
&nbsp;&nbsp;return&nbsp;"number&nbsp;is&nbsp;not even"&nbsp;(is_num_even&nbsp;=&nbsp;0&nbsp;or&nbsp;false)
