Indeed (and program output confirms [^])!
And also Visual Basic sample is consistently wrong.

I have now warned all unsuspecting prey. I wonder how many times that CodeDom definition is being used throughout the documentation?

No wonder why we are getting so many crappy programmers....

Actually not. For a beginner something like this is not easy to spot. Once they do, they will have learned that you may never go on assumptions and always must check even the simplest things to make certain that they work as they should.
Crappy programmers are those who are totally resistant to learning from their mistakes.
A while ago he asked me what he should have printed on my business cards. I said 'Wizard'.
I read books which nobody else understand. Then I do something which nobody understands. After that the computer does something which nobody understands. When asked, I say things about the results which nobody understand. But everybody expects miracles from me on a regular basis. Looks to me like the classical definition of a wizard.

I completely agree. Mistakes are just hurdles on the path to excellence.
The people who will eventually achieve exellence will learn how to jump the hurdles, all the others will simply say to themselves... "f!ck this" and go get a beer... .

If it is just a pause to get distant and turn back afterwards to continue facing the problem from other perspective is not a bad issue. But if it is the last action... then I am agree with you :P

In this case I would suggest renaming it to IsNotEven

Or Mod2Equals1.
Better that the method remain anonymous.

I use this:
private bool IsEven(int value)
{
return (value & 1) == 0;
}
So the creationist says: Everything must have a designer. God designed everything.
I say: Why is God the only exception? Why not make the "designs" (like man) exceptions and make God a creation of man?
|
|
|
|
|
|
I did this for months after I started teaching myself visual basic, I would compare boolean object properties to TRUE.
If (checkbox1.checked = true) then
Needless to say how stupid I felt when I realised what I was doing 
|
|
|
|

Hmmm, I always thought it should be along the lines of:
private static bool isEven(int i)
{
return ((i % 1) == 0);
}

It depends on the programming language you're using (we have C++, C#, VBand even Java forums). You may also as the SQL/ADO/ADO.NET forum if you feel the problem springing from the database.

OK how do you like this: JavaScript in SQL?

I don't see any horror adding JS in sql, but again I don't know the output. I have added js to a code generation. That way I don't have to mack off with the output at the UI level.
