Any number that is not an integer is neither even nor odd.
For example, decimals such as 8.5, or pi, are neither even nor odd. While the numerator or denominator of a fraction is either even or odd, the fraction is not.
Some people mistakenly say that 0 is neither even nor odd. But according to its additive properties, zero is even. The integer 0 is not the same thing as the null set. 0 is the number of elements in the null set. Zero is a number, not a set.
