Even and odd 2014-11-28
From Subrahmanya:
n1, n2, n3....................,n1997 are integers not necessarily distinct. (actually in n1, n2,.............., n1997 the numbers 1,2,.................,1997 are subscripts of 'n')

X= (-1)^n1+(-1)^n2+............+(-1)^n998

Y=(-1)^n999+(-1)^n1000+............+(-1)^n1997

Then

which of the following options is true

A) (-1)^X = 1, (-1)^Y = 1 B) (-1)^X = 1, (-1)^Y = -1
C) (-1)^X = -1, (-1)^Y = 1 D) (-1)^X = -1, (-1)^Y = -1
E) none of these

Is zero an even or odd number? 2000-02-06
From Christian Hansen:
On a list I run, someone posted that 02-02-2000 was the first date since 28-08-888 where all the digits were even. Of course, this provoked a discussion of whether zero was odd, or even, or neither. I remember reading that, for symmetry's sake, it is considered by mathematicians to be even. Any thoughts?
