Nothing says we need to use whole numbers? Anything else will converge to 2,1,4,2,1,4,2,1...

0.1 on the other hand just keeps shrinking forever...

Edit: sorry, I should have answered in the form of an emoji: ๐ŸŒญ=๐Ÿ‰รท๐ŸŠ

Not quite. You cannot determine whether 0.1 is odd.

If you define a number to be odd if N mod 2 = 1, then 0.1 is not odd.

If you define a number to be odd if N mod 2 โ‰  0, then 0.1 is odd.

As such, I would argue checking if 0.1 is odd would result in "unknown" and you cannot get the value of ๐ŸŽโ‚.

Then I stand by my emoji based reply: ๐ŸŒญ=๐Ÿ‰รท๐ŸŠ

No numbers to determine if it's odd or not yet.
