  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. Badminton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badminton

    Badminton is a racquet sport played using racquets to hit a shuttlecock across a net.Although it may be played with larger teams, the most common forms of the game are "singles" (with one player per side) and "doubles" (with two players per side).

  4. Even and odd functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Even_and_odd_functions

    They are named for the parity of the powers of the power functions which satisfy each condition: the function () = is even if n is an even integer, and it is odd if n is an odd integer. Even functions are those real functions whose graph is self-symmetric with respect to the y -axis, and odd functions are those whose graph is self-symmetric ...

  5. Odds and evens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odds_and_evens

    Odds and evens may refer to: . Odds and evens (hand game), a two-player guessing game using fingers Odds and evens (patience), a solitaire variant of the card game Royal Cotillion

  6. Parity function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_function

    Parity only depends on the number of ones and is therefore a symmetric Boolean function.. The n-variable parity function and its negation are the only Boolean functions for which all disjunctive normal forms have the maximal number of 2 n − 1 monomials of length n and all conjunctive normal forms have the maximal number of 2 n − 1 clauses of length n.

  7. 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. Every ...

  8. Even - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Even

    In mathematics, the term even is used in several senses related to odd: even and odd numbers, an integer is even if dividing by two yields an integer; even and odd functions, a function is even if f(−x) = f(x) for all x; even and odd permutations, a permutation of a finite set is even if it is composed of an even number of transpositions

  9. Parity of zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_zero

    In mathematics, zero is an even number.In other words, its parity—the quality of an integer being even or odd—is even. This can be easily verified based on the definition of "even": zero is an integer multiple of 2, specifically 0 × 2.
