What did i do wrong? (python pro question)

Question

num = 1
if num is == ("even"):
print("double")
elif num == ("odd"):
print("triple")
elif num == ("zero"):
print("0")
else:
("print 3")

Answer 1

else:
("print 3")

should be:

else:
print(3)

**it will always print 3 though since you are comparing an integer to strings

Answer 2

Slick is right👍
But Ive noticed some other mistakes too.

●Variable num is an INTEGER, and if you want to know if it is EVEN, you can use ▶"if num % 2 == 0"◀ this checks if a number divided by 2 has a REMAINDER, if it has none, then it is divisible by 2 (even). If it has remainder "1" then it is ODD.

●Number "0" will also meet the condition of ▶"if num % 2 == 0"◀thats why I instead put the condition "if num == 0" at the TOP so that it will be CHECKED by the program FIRST and will not be USELESS.

●Lastly, Your ELSE statement is UNNECCESSARY. Since, no integer will be NEITHER odd or even.
