It’s a Sunday so it is a very short post from me…

I found this question interesting as I haven’t seen something like this in any of the old style papers and I also read something (unfortunately I can’t remember where) about the staggering amount of teachers who couldn’t answer the question “is 0 even or odd”. 

What do you think of this question?
