Hackerrank Ruby Tutorial - Object Methods Solution

Each object in Ruby may have methods associated with it. To demonstrate this, we want you to print whether a number is even or odd. A number has an even? method  associated with it, which returns true or false based on the parity of the number.

Assuming a variable number is already defined, check whether a given number is even or not.

Hint

Type in the code-editor

return number.even?

or

number.even?

Input Format.MathJax_SVG_Display {text-align: center; margin: 1em 0em; position: relative; display: block!important; text-indent: 0; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0; min-height: 0; width: 100%} .MathJax_SVG .MJX-monospace {font-family: monospace} .MathJax_SVG .MJX-sans-serif {font-family: sans-serif} .MathJax_SVG {display: inline; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size: 100%; font-size-adjust: none; text-indent: 0; text-align: left; text-transform: none; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; word-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0; min-height: 0; border: 0; padding: 0; margin: 0} .MathJax_SVG * {transition: none; -webkit-transition: none; -moz-transition: none; -ms-transition: none; -o-transition: none} .mjx-svg-href {fill: blue; stroke: blue} .MathJax_SVG_LineBox {display: table!important} .MathJax_SVG_LineBox span {display: table-cell!important; width: 10000em!important; min-width: 0; max-width: none; padding: 0; border: 0; margin: 0}

The first line of input contains an integer . The next  contains one integer in each line.

Output Format.MathJax_SVG_Display {text-align: center; margin: 1em 0em; position: relative; display: block!important; text-indent: 0; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0; min-height: 0; width: 100%} .MathJax_SVG .MJX-monospace {font-family: monospace} .MathJax_SVG .MJX-sans-serif {font-family: sans-serif} .MathJax_SVG {display: inline; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size: 100%; font-size-adjust: none; text-indent: 0; text-align: left; text-transform: none; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; word-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0; min-height: 0; border: 0; padding: 0; margin: 0} .MathJax_SVG * {transition: none; -webkit-transition: none; -moz-transition: none; -ms-transition: none; -o-transition: none} .mjx-svg-href {fill: blue; stroke: blue} .MathJax_SVG_LineBox {display: table!important} .MathJax_SVG_LineBox span {display: table-cell!important; width: 10000em!important; min-width: 0; max-width: none; padding: 0; border: 0; margin: 0}

The output is handled by the code written in the editor.
