$x++ if $x%2;
This increments $x if $x is odd.

Subject: Odd and even
numbers
Greetings,
I am trying to write a script that at one point needs to look at a number
and divide it by two. The results must always be an integer, but the
numerator can potentially be an odd number. What I want to do is if the
numerator is odd, increment it to the next highest even number. Is there a
function in PERL that will allow me to test weather or not an integer is
odd
or even so that I can increment the number before I do the division?
