This is an exercise that is more about thinking programatically than it is about writing Python code. However, consider that even numbers are evenly divisible by 2 and odds are not. Now try to use the basics you've learned so far about Python to solve your problem. A while loop, if, and print statement along with basic mathematic operators are all you really need to solve this. Good luck! Kelly
