MATLAB: How to find out if a number is even or not

even numbers

I know in C language, for any number x using x%2 will calculate the remainder when x is divided by 2, which will help decipher whether its even or not.

How can I do this in matlab?

See mod and rem

You simply have to go back to the definition of odd and even. An (integer) number is even if it is divisible by 2, odd otherwise. Divisible by 2 means that the remainder when divided by 2 is 0. That is easy to test, the function to get the remainder is rem (or you can use mod).

As with many things in matlab you do not need a loop, the functions work on vector / matrices

m = [1 2 3;4 5 6]
iseven = rem(m, 2) == 0

MATLAB: Using testtype to check odd or even numbers

if rem(jj,2) == 1 % odd

    statements
elseif rem(jj,2) == 0 % even

    statements
end

if rem(jj,2)      % odd
    statements
else              % even
    statements
end
