The algorithm to find A is even or odd.

input A. Check the remainder on diving by 2 by A%2. If remainder is 1 then A is odd Print (Odd). If remainder is 0 print (Even).

Explanation:

To check if the number is even or odd we use modulo operator (%). Which gives the remainder on dividing. So if we do this A%2 it will give the remainder that will come out on dividing the value of A by 2.

So if the remainder comes out is 1 then the number is odd and if the remainder is 0 then the number is odd.
