If a real function has a domain that is self-symmetric with respect to the origin, it may be uniquely decomposed as the sum of an even and an odd function, which are called respectively the even part (or the even component) and the odd part (or the odd component) of the function, and are defined by = + (), and = ().
It is possible for a function to be neither odd nor even, and for the case f(x) = 0, to be both odd and even. [20] The Taylor series of an even function contains only terms whose exponent is an even number, and the Taylor series of an odd function contains only terms whose exponent is an odd number. [21]
In practice, in order to determine whether a given permutation is even or odd, one writes the permutation as a product of disjoint cycles. The permutation is odd if and only if this factorization contains an odd number of even-length cycles. Another method for determining whether a given permutation is even or odd is to construct the ...
The SVG defines the even–odd rule by saying: This rule determines the "insideness" of a point on the canvas by drawing a ray from that point to infinity in any direction and counting the number of path segments from the given shape that the ray crosses. If this number is odd, the point is inside; if even, the point is outside.
Alternatively, over any field of characteristic 2, all functions are both even and odd; many of them are also invertible. -- Meni Rosenfeld ( talk ) 18:14, 11 December 2014 (UTC) [ reply ] Usually, even/odd functions are functions of a real variable, which I take to mean that their domains are all of R (or at the very least symmetric domains ...
In Boolean algebra, a parity function is a Boolean function whose value is one if and only if the input vector has an odd number of ones. The parity function of two inputs is also known as the XOR function. The parity function is notable for its role in theoretical investigation of circuit complexity of Boolean functions.
