Code explanation

First, declare a variable of integer type.

Then using printf() function print “Enter the number”.

Using scanf() read the number entered by the user.

Using ‘%'(modulus operator) divide the number by 2 and compare the result with 0 using the ‘==’ operator.

Then using the ‘?:’ ternary operator the true or false statement is selected. Then using printf() function print the result onto the console.
