Check whether given floating point number is even or odd

Last Updated : 20 Feb, 2023

Given a floating-point number, check whether it is even or odd.

We can check whether a integer is even or odd by dividing its last digit by 2. But in case of floating point number we can't check a given number is even or odd by just dividing its last digit by 2. For example, 100.70 is an odd number but its last digit is divisible by 2.

Examples :

Input : 100.7
Output : odd

Input : 98.8
Output : even

Input : 100.70
Output : odd
Trailing 0s after dot do not matter.

Approach :

We start traversing a number from its LSB until we get a non-zero digit or '.'
If the number is divisible by 2 it is even else odd
If it is '.' than it means decimal part of number is traversed and now we can check number is even or odd by dividing number by 2 whether it is 0 or non zero digit.

Below is the implementation of above approach :

C++

// CPP program to check whether given floating
// point number is even or odd
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// Function to check even or odd.
bool isEven(string s)
{
    int l = s.length();

    // Loop to traverse number from LSB
    bool dotSeen = false;
    for (int i = l - 1; i >= 0; i--) {

        // We ignore trailing 0s after dot
        if (s[i] == '0' && dotSeen == false)
            continue;

        // If it is '.' we will check next digit and it
        // means decimal part is traversed.
        if (s[i] == '.') {
            dotSeen = true;
            continue;
        }

        // If digit is divisible by 2
        // means even number.
        if ((s[i] - '0') % 2 == 0)
            return true;

        return false;
    }
}

// Driver Function
int main()
{
    string s = "100.70";
    if (isEven(s))
        cout << "Even";
    else
        cout << "Odd";
    return 0;
}

Java

// Java program to check whether given floating
// point number is even or odd
import java.util.*;
import java.lang.*;

public class GfG {

    // Function to check even or odd.
    public static boolean isEven(String s1)
    {
        int l = s1.length();
        char[] s = s1.toCharArray();

        // Loop to traverse number from LSB
        boolean dotSeen = false;
        for (int i = l - 1; i >= 0; i--) {

            // We ignore trailing 0s after dot
            if (s[i] == '0' && dotSeen == false)
                continue;

            // If it is '.' we will check next digit and it
            // means decimal part is traversed.
            if (s[i] == '.') {
                dotSeen = true;
                continue;
            }

            // If digit is divisible by 2
            // means even number.
            if ((s[i] - '0') % 2 == 0)
                return true;

            return false;
        }

        return false;
    }

    // Driver function
    public static void main(String argc[])
    {
        String s = "100.70";
        if (isEven(s))
            System.out.println("Even");
        else
            System.out.println("Odd");
    }
