Check whether product of 'n' numbers is even or odd in Python

Suppose we have an array nums. We have to check whether the product of these numbers is even or odd.

So, if the input is like nums = [5,7,4,2,6], then the output will be Even, as the multiplication is 1680 and this is even.

To solve this, we will follow these steps −

• for i in range 0 to size of nums - 1, do
  • if nums[i] is even, then
    • return "Even"
• return "Odd"

Let us see the following implementation to get better understanding −

Example Code

Live Demo

def solve(nums):
   for i in range(len(nums)):
      if not nums[i] & 1:
         return "Even"
 
   return "Odd"
   
nums = [5,7,4,2,6]
print(solve(nums))

Input

[5,7,4,2,6]

Output

Even
