We need to refer to the mathematical definition of the word "even."
The most commonly accepted definition is that a number "a" is even if there exists an integer "n" which makes the following statement true:
a = 2 x n
0 is an integer. So let n = 0 in the above equation and we get:
0 = 2 x 0
So 0 satisfies the mathematical definition for being even.
Please refer to the article in the "related links" section for a discussion about the misconceptions about zero and why people mistakenly think it is not an even number.

Is 0 odd or even or noting?
An even number can be divided by 2. An odd number will have a remainder when divided by 2. 0 is an even number.
Is 1 neither an even nor odd?
*1 is an odd number * 0 is an even number
Is there a function that is both even and odd?
Yes f(x)=0 is both even and odd
Is 0 a odd number and even?
An even number can be divided by 2 evenly. An odd number will have a remainder of 1 when divided by 2. 0 is an even number.
Why is 0 a even number. When is it's a odd?
0 is a number to divide the positives and the negitives. Then it will be an even in this timeline. -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 Because it goes even odd even odd even. If zero was not there, then it would go even odd odd even.
What is the number that is even and odd?
There is no such number. Many people mistakenly say that 0 is both even and odd or that 0 is neither even nor odd. 0 is even by every mathematical definition of the word "even" and is not odd by every mathematical definition of the word "odd."
Is 0 even and odd?
0 is an even number because it is between two odd numbers.

Is 0 an even number or an odd?
even :)
What number is not even or odd?
Any number that is not an integer is neither even nor odd. For example, 8.5, pi, the square root of 2 are all neither even nor odd. Every integer (including 0) is either even or odd. 0 is even since it is divisible by 2: 0 / 2 = 0
Is 0 odd or even or noting?
An even number can be divided by 2. An odd number will have a remainder when divided by 2. 0 is an even number.
Is 0 an odd or a even number?
Its even.
Is 3367 even?
No, even numbers end in the digits 2,4,6,8, or 0. 3367 is odd, because numbers that end in 1,3,5,7, or 9 are odd. 0 is neither even or odd.
