  2. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(mathematics)

    Even and odd numbers have opposite parities, e.g., 22 (even number) and 13 (odd number) have opposite parities. In particular, the parity of zero is even. [2] Any two consecutive integers have opposite parity. A number (i.e., integer) expressed in the decimal numeral system is even or odd according to whether its last digit is even or odd. That ...

  3. Parity of zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_zero

    The even and odd numbers alternate. Starting at any even number, counting up or down by twos reaches the other even numbers, and there is no reason to skip over zero. [8] With the introduction of multiplication, parity can be approached in a more formal way using arithmetic expressions. Every integer is either of the form (2 × ) + 0 or (2 × ...

  4. Parity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity

    Parity (mathematics), indicates whether a number is even or odd Parity of a permutation, indicates whether a permutation has an even or odd number of inversions; Parity function, a Boolean function whose value is 1 if the input vector has an odd number of ones; Parity learning, a problem in machine learning; Parity of even and odd functions

  5. Odd–even rationing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oddeven_rationing

    Mathematically, zero is an even number; half of the numbers in a given range end in 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and the other half in 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, so it makes sense to include 0 with the other even digits for rationing. However, the general public is not always aware of the mathematical principle and think that zero is odd, or both even and odd, or neither.

  6. Collatz conjecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collatz_conjecture

    The number is taken to be 'odd' or 'even' according to whether its numerator is odd or even. Then the formula for the map is exactly the same as when the domain is the integers: an 'even' such rational is divided by 2; an 'odd' such rational is multiplied by 3 and then 1 is added.

  8. Parity of a permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_a_permutation

    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 corresponding permutation matrix and compute its determinant. The value of the determinant is the same as the parity of the permutation.

  9. Wason selection task - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wason_selection_task

    The rule makes no claims about odd numbers. (Denying the antecedent) If the 8 card is not blue, it violates the rule. (Modus ponens) If the blue card is odd (or even), that doesn't violate the rule. The blue color is not exclusive to even numbers. (Affirming the consequent) If the red card is even, it violates the rule. (Modus tollens)
