is there a function, using MySQL 5.0v, that can detect if a numerical value is either an Even or Odd number MOD() http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mathematical-functions.html#function_mod SELECT MOD( X, 2 ) where X is your number (or column name). If 0, it's even if 1 it's odd. thnx, Christoph -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org

RE: Even or Odds numbers
Not sure what you're trying to do, but if all you want to do is toggle between two things (as in row color zebra stripes or something) then I would suggest you not use some MOD() routine and instead just flip a boolean. For example in PHP just do: tr class=?= ($r == !r) ? 'light' : 'dark' ? just sayin'. -Original Message- From: Mike Blezien [mailto:mick...@frontiernet.net] Sent: Tuesday, August 31, 2010 11:13 AM To: jcbo...@yahoo.com Cc: MySQL List Subject: Re: Even or Odds numbers - Original Message - From: Christoph Boget christoph.bo...@gmail.com To: Mike Blezien mick...@frontiernet.net Cc: MySQL List mysql@lists.mysql.com Sent: Tuesday, August 31, 2010 1:06 PM Subject: Re: Even or Odds numbers is there a function, using MySQL 5.0v, that can detect if a numerical value is either an Even or Odd number MOD() http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/mathematical-functions. html#function_mod SELECT MOD( X, 2 ) where X is your number (or column name).
