    Whats the alternative a macro? An inline function is perfectly fine for checking if a nunber is even. Compiler will probably optimize it to a single and instruction.

      No. The alternative is to not use a float. Testing if a float is even simply does not make sense.

      Even testing two floats for equality rarely makes sense.

      What is the correct output of isEven((.2 + .4) ×10)

      Hint: (.2 + .4) x 10 != 6
