Hmm. Let’s look at the definitions of those words.
Odd = evenly divisible without remainder only by itself and 1.
Even = evenly divisible without remainder by 2.
Well, zero is not divisible by itself. So, it can’t be odd.
But zero can be evenly divided by all other integers, including 2.
So, therefore, zero must be even.
