Check Whether Given Number is Even or Odd in C++

In this post, we will write a program to check whether the given number is even or odd in C++. We will write a program using the if-else statement and in second program we will use ternary operator to check even or odd numbers in C++. The third program we will develop using a switch case statement. At last, we will write a c++ program to check whether a number is even or odd using the function.

Condition to check even or odd number is:- If the number is divisible by 2 then it is an even number else it is an odd number. Examples of even numbers are- 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and e.t.c. and the examples of odd numbers are- 5, 7, 9, 11, and e.t.c.

C++ program to check whether Number is Even or Odd using If-else statement

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
  // declare variable
  int number;

  // take input
  cout << "Enter an Integer: " ;
  cin >> number;

  // check number
  if (number % 2 == 0)
    cout << number  << " is Even Number" << endl;
  else
    cout << number  << " is Odd Number" << endl;

  return 0;
}

Output:-

Enter an Integer: 5
5is Odd Number

Enter an Integer: 6
6 is Even Number

C++ Program to Check whether Number is Even or Odd Using Ternary Operators

The conditional or ternary operator is similar to the if-else statement. The if-else statement takes more than one line of the statements, but the conditional operator finishes the same task in a single statement. The operands may be an expression, constants or variables. It starts with a condition, hence it is called a conditional operator.

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
  // declare variable
  int number;

  // take input
  cout << "Enter an Integer: " ;
  cin >> number;

  // check using ternary operator
  (number % 2 == 0) ? cout << "Even" << endl : cout << "Odd" << endl;

  return 0;
}

C++ Program to Check whether Number is Even or Odd Using Switch Case

The switch case statement in C++ programming is a multi-way decision that tests whether an expression matches one of a number of constant integer values, and branches accordingly. Two keywords are used in the program:- switch and case.

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
  // declare variable
  int number;

  // take input
  cout << "Enter an Integer: " ;
  cin >> number;

  // check using switch case
  switch(number % 2)
  {
      case 0 :
        cout << "Even";
        break;
      case 1 :
        cout << "Odd";
        break;
  }

  return 0;
}

Using Function

A function is a block of code that performs a specific task. For example, the main is function and every program execution starts from main function in C++ programming.

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
// function to check odd even
void checkOddEven(int n)
{
    if(n%2 == 0)
    cout << "Even";
    else
    cout << "Odd";
}
// main function
int main()
{
  // declare variable
  int number;

  // take input
  cout << "Enter an Integer: " ;
  cin >> number;

  // check odd even 
  checkOddEven(number);

  return 0;
}
